My girl just got done from letting my car overheat and went above the (H) as she told me. I told her to pull over she did not listen. She came home with a hose that busted. I replaced the hose then took it for a test drive. I got back tried to start it but no start it only turns over. I replace the Distributor cap and rotor and I got something this time but it will still not crank on. I pulled the plugs out and the plugs where soaked in gas. Cleaned them up still nothing. Im not to sure what I should do at this point. I really dont wont to take it in to some odd mechanic to tell me something I could have done. So please help me out. Im open to any suggestions.

Your girlfriend is retarded sorry to say...Why the hell did she not stop...I dont know why people dont listen pisses me off now your gonna spend a lot more money trying to get it to run right. Hope nothing is warped but probably is depending on the extent she drove on H.

Check for spark?
No I have not check for spark. I was just curious to check the for spark you just pull a spark plug out and connect it to the plug right, and then turn the ign.key. If im not mistaken is that correct.Originally posted by wed3kComment

Well If I took it out for a test run right after I replaced the hose and fluid. It ran fine down shifted and everything. Got back home I tried starting again and turned over but no start.Originally posted by NAiL05Comment

You said fuel if your sure do what wedek said. Could have fouled the plugs as mentioned.

shes retarded for that
tell her since she doesnt seem to listen that your gonna use the money that you had set aside for her christmas presents to fix the car. if she gives you lip then dump her cuz she only concerned about herself.
hey maybe she fried your ecs sensor with the engine getting so hot.
any check engine light. at worst do compression test or vacuum guage to see if anythings warped. check the coolant and oil. any chochlate milk?

I just reread that. Sounds like you have no spark. Pull your dipstick anyway and see if you smell gas.Last edited by Fake Thug; 12-09-2007, 07:23 PM.Comment

LOL Well the oil is fine everything is good besides the fact I get the car to start but as far as restarting the car its not happening without having to turn in hudreds of times in the 1-2 key position.Originally posted by xfactortype1Comment

Well I think I have spark because I got it to run but now its just hard to start the damn thing again without having to sit there forever.Originally posted by oozingmachismo2Comment

Check your fuel filter. The fact that it starts after turning the key on and off several times is telling me that fuel is having a hard time getting to your motor. Fuel filter is the most likely cause for that.Originally posted by sweet91accordComment

Yeah I think I will try that. Im not exactly sure what it could be. Ijust started it up and took it out for a drive and tried to hit the gas and it would just stumble while trying to speed up. It would go but stumble at the same time-40 mph over. When I got home I turned it off tried to turn it on and nope no start just turns over but eventually I can get it to start and it purrs like a kitten.Originally posted by foamypirateLast edited by dualacord; 12-10-2007, 01:46 AM.Comment

Distributor Was Bad
Solved the problem it was the Distributor. Now it starts everytime I guess the old one would only start when it was cold but when it was hot no way was it going to start.Comment
