I found an electrical box looking thing under my driver side seat...
I was taking my seats out to put new upholstry on them and I found a black box
under my driver seat, there are two black plugs that arent pluged into eachother
when they should be, and there is a white plug stuck to the top of the box that is
pluged in, but all the wires are snipped off of the plug on the left side when leaning
into the car, what is this for? Thanks in advance

That is the car's black box. In the event of a crash or accident, it records all the pertinent data like how fast you were going, engine rpms, lateral g force, wind velocity and time of the day.

Really? I didnt know they had things like that on cars, especialy ones this old.. I was
hoping it was something that was causing my car to not work properly, but I guess
im still back to hoping its just the carb and getting a replacement so it will work
correctly..

Well considering its my first car and Im 17 Im not too embaressed, rather, maybe
when you answer someones question with a false answer maybe you should be
embarresed. I found out what it was anyway, and also that there is a computer in
the driver side bin under the carpet. Maybe I wont attempt to use this site for help
anymore.

not really that funny...
your computer now days records all that, when we hook it up to check codes sensor all that. itll show if youve ever toped out your speed limiter.
it is so it voids the warrenty if so. but we dont tell the dealership.
if you go to a dealership with it like that. theyre not gonna do it,

If you can't take a joke the internet really ain't the best place for ya, son. You got the info you needed in a timely fashion, I don't see any particular reason to bitch.

I realize it was a joke, and I wasnt crying or "bitching". All I was saying was that I asked a question hoping to get a response, and then he told me something that was wrong, yes it was funny, but I just didnt see why people kept talking about how embaressing it was, and as if I was stupid. Im sorry I dont know ever detail of a 20+ year old car, that is why I asked the question. And also I realize that this is the internet, which is why I was expecting someone to come and try and start an argument about something I said.

You mentioned your car not working properly. What are the symptoms? maybe the problem can be pinpointed and handled easily.
P.S. A word of advice: Take out the "Mods: Only a leather shiftboot and a different **** at the moment.." out of your signature. That ain't no mod.

I doubt that Jon or Carl would like a cranky son of a bitch like me running around with moderator powers.
Anyhoo, now that I've provoked the young'uns and stirred the pot, I'll be on my merry way.
