Default 97 lt1 problem

Ran the car about a month ago and when I shut it off it wouldn't crank back up. Would turn over but no spark from coil. Just got around to trying it again today and it fired right up. Haven't changed out any parts. All my dash lights are on though. Brake, asr off, abs inop. Any ideas. Running it now. Gonna see if it will restart after it warms up.

Those dash lights are often in tandem with low voltage. Check and tighten all your battery cables and grounds (especially the ground on the RH shock tower).

I had a very similar problem and had to change my fuel pump.
