Boy do I feel dumb. Always go over new stuff the PO added to the car and make sure to check the basics of the basics.
First of all, under the hood the first thing that catches your eyes are new plug wires. What was wrong: 3 plug wires not seated on spark plugs, 1 fuel injector plug was loose/off, plug wires to distrib in wrong sequence. Re-routed plug wires, boom, car starts instantly. I think I might have 2 switched though, massive white smoke. I'll have to check, they were loose, but I have to sleep now. I feel soooo much better. Tuesday I'll spend the day rechecking plug routing and clean underhood. Liscensing to come next. -Joe |

Coil packs then? I need to replace the intake gasket, looks like it's leaking like crazy. That will also give me chance to clean up intake manifold and underhood.
Before/after shots to follow. |
