i think napa charges more than Schuck's/Al's auto supply/Checker's, napa charges more for their warranties and parts too and quality isnt that great. would u buy from Autolite or NAPA owned company? they make their own filters and stuff too, id rather buy something from popular companies

This is to the guy that has the car that doesn't seem to want to start. Letting the clutch out will work if you know what you're doing. Obviously you don't. Also, you've got it pretty bad if your life all of a sudden sucks just because of car problems. A used car is going to have certain issues. Maybe you'd better go back to the bike. Fewer moving parts!<P>To the admin of this site...<BR>I thought this was a 'clean' site... I don't appreciate the cussin'.

If your starter was out, you would still be able to push start it. The starter only runs until you turn the key back from the starting position. I would try getting it going real good (10-15MPH) in 1st gear and pop the clutch. If it just imediatly stops, get your mechanic to tear it apart because the engine has siezed. Also, check the oil asap. If it's dark black or gone, get a KLZE. I know that sun engines sells them for $950 if you're a member of probetalk. Or find a KL03 (KLDE) engine. good luck
