Got my car running again!!
As the title says, It lives!
I guess when my car started and then stopped last week, it was running on the remaining pressure in the lines, as the fuel pump was dead. When I was replacing my stereo I had some help from a friend, and he was doing all the sub wiring while I was putting in the deck... well he found these wires and ripped them out without telling me. Me being the naive person that I am thought "oh well, it's just the cat heat sensor, and I don't have a cat in my car". Turns out, those were the fuel pump wires that he ripped out. So I re-wired the fuel pump and turned the key to on. Huuummmmmm... Success!
Got a couple of guys to push me and bump started it...
VRRRMMMMM!!! Music to my ears. I then spent the next 25 minutes driving her up and down the parking lot to charge the battery (and get my jollies hehehe )
purrrr purrrr..... VVVRRROOOOMMMM!!! **tire squeal noise**
Friends:
Me: :p
My Girlfriend:
Lesson for the day: Don't let dumbass friends help you with your car, no matter how good they say they are at wiring...
Thanks to all who helped me out in my other thread!!
