Re: Cranks, puts a bit - but will not start.
I doubt the car will sell at $500. Maybe it's a starter. but, gee whiz. that's not something that I can just swap out to test. The only way out is that way through. - I've been really upset over this. Took a few hours to listen to some Zen MP3 last night. Brother took me out for a beer I'm feeling a...

[FS] 1992 mx3 gs. $500
Car looks good - very little rust. Car needs work - of the mechanical kind, as it will not start. It does start under optimal conditions, (ambient temperature is above 0 and it's dry) I need it gone, looking at it makes me angry- because I purchased it, less then two months ago for $1400 and spent a...

Re: Cranks, puts a bit - but will not start.
After ignition coil - still no start. This thing needs to be in a garage, fixed by someone who has tools, and knows what they are doing. I do not have tools, I do not have a garage, I do not know what I'm doing. I've put in a good effort to fix this car. But I have done all that I can. Can anyone in...

Sending out an SOS
The vultures are circling over my GS. It will not start in cold weather, it's useless to me. I need to contact a mechanic in Calgary to help me get this vehicle running. After purchasing it, buying parts, changing fluids, and a trip to mechanic - along with cab fair and loss of use related costs. I ...

Re: Cranks, puts a bit - but will not start.
Ok, I started a new thread on testing the VAF - that is it's own topic.
For now, I've got my soldering IRON and a GM HEI module and lots of cable - YA-baby!
I wonder if my car will start tomorrow? It's snowing outside.

How can I do a voltage sweep on a VAF?
A few people seem to be having this problem. But they understood how to connect a multimeter to a VAF and test for voltage, rather then resistance. The wire harness to the VAF is in good shape. I do not want to cut into it, exposing the wires, and I doubt that's required. So, how in "Hells Bell...

Re: [fail] Half a can of propane checking for vacuum issues.
I was at the parts store looking for ether - or engine starting fluid.
They asked what I wanted to use it for.
They guy went into a long winded conversation of why that was a terrible idea...
ether burns white... explosive... dangerous... blah blah blah. No ether.

Re: Cranks, puts a bit - but will not start.
VAF-zilla! According to the shop manual you can test the resistance on the VAF. Using something called a "Circuit Tester." I have a multimeter. I do not have a circuit tester. THA E2 E2 VC VS pin1 pin2 pin3 pin4 pin5 When I read the resistance between THA and E2 (either E2 pin) I get aroun...

Re: [fail] Half a can of propane checking for vacuum issues.
Maybe I have a vacuum leak - but where would it be? End where can I can my hands on a bottle of ether!
I can step on the gas some - and nothing much happens, yet if I tap the gas repeatedly and quickly - I take off like a rocket! I need to open up a topic regarding this.
