I just retaped that sucker up and after removing the old tape noticed a HUGE crack. So i took electrical tape and rolled it into strips to fit inside the ribs. then taped all around it.. Im thinking there was WAY to much air getting in and the reason was because we just had our first few really cold...

I swore to myself a little awhile ago that since money is tight I shouldn't think about modding my car.. just keeping it functional.... but this site always changes my mind. Who knows where im going to find the money! Im opening a business so hopefully itmore than pays for it. <small>[ December 05, ...

Yeesh i just replaced that damn thing last fall..

Just a little asside here but if anyone has a chilton manual do they find it crap? Gonna listen for the pump now, just got to reinstall airfilter (cleaning it) and clean my throttlebody, and making sure my hoses are air tight. Hopefully this well let me know what is esactly wrong.

*gets out manual to find out how to pop back seat*

Just wanted to say nice ride, im not a huge fan of the color, but if there was anyway to make it look good on a car, you def. did the job. Good work!

Well im glad you never said it was my gas pump... as those are expensive... not including labor haha. Will do what u said, thanks for the suggestions guys.

Really? So theres nothing weird about how this just all the sudden happened? Like I mean car was running fine and this is all out of the blue. I can't see grounding being an issue at ALL...

Anyone else think this? Does anyone else agree it could be the gas pump? *sighs*

Go to the wreckers... find this crappiest lookin one and get the lowest price.. Then spend the day (it will take u the entire day) to clean it and take it apart. You will possibly need new boot, and some other parts(they are cheap, and most places have them instock. Bring in the caliper to make sure...

I shoulda salvaged those from my first mx.. but I was too out of it...

There is a 94 probe gt with a 2.5klze. 15k km on it. 3900.. Is this person asking too much, assuming normal wear and tear on the car and proper maintenance?

Hey sorry, I just noticed I did forget to mention that. But that rubber hose is already taped to hell with lots of elctrical tape.... I had a vacuum problem before so most things in my car are taped haha. I will go through and check fro cracks in everything.. and retape that ribbed hose. I can't see...

Well, I assume that in addition to the car turning over.... the shaking that follows indicates that there is a spark trying to ignite(or whatever the hell it does) the fuel.. just that there is not enough of it..

Also, I may be full of S***... I dont claim to be smart or anything lol.

So my car is not starting, it is turning over, so battery and alternator are not the problems. The car is getting a spark then. So im guessing engine isn't getting gas. I bout gas line antifreeze because I thought the cold would have been the problem. Put it in yesterday... tried to start car 15 min...

Check all you vacuum lines, if they are old you will find that they are cracked, simply slice of the cracked portion and hopefully you have enough slack left to re-attach the lines. I had the EXACT same problem. Lakersfan knows what hes talkin about cause he helped me out, just look at all the hoses.
