Hi from uk let's not think negative waves? and just go back to basic process of eliminating ? what simple causes could be wrong ? if engine fired up then died? could be ignition fault or fuel supply? have you got spark when engine turns over ? if so check fuel ? is fuel pump working/delivering to engine ? from what you described engine did fire but died ? and now turns over but no attempt to start if fuel pump failed ? engine would normally start initially but die when fuel is used up in carb or efi system if you suspect cambelt/chain has failed you would have heard noise as pistons hit valves ?? then when you turn engine over ? it would spin faster with lack of compression does this make sense to your theory? i would think positive and do these diy checks as mentioned above first you may find fault yourself without spending $$$$$s for garage to charge for same checks?

I need the exact fireing order for a 97 plymouth grand voyager 3.0

The firing order for your engine is 1-2-3-4-5-6. If you are standing in front of your vehicle looking at the engine the left rear is #1, left front is #2, middle rear is #3, middle front is #4, right rear is #5, right front is #6. Now on the coil block it is different the middle rear is #1, left front is #2, right rear is #3, middle front is #4, left rear is #5, and right front is #6. Hope this helps

My 1993 Grand Voyager won't start.

I had a similar problem a while back, something you may want to check on is a sensor that check the temperature outside, it sometimes shorts out and tells the computer that it is -100 outside and the computer shuts off the engine and will not spark or do anything as it is trying to protrect your engine...sorry i can't remember the exact name of the sensor but its a faulty one and only costs about 50$ to replace hope this helps
