IT'S ALIIIIIIIIIVE. took it out for a spin, my whole problem was the choke wasnt hooked up right. WTF i suck ***. (thanks nate) anyways, now i have a rough idle from a combination of fouled plugs and i think i have a vac leak. BUT, thank you CARL for the fuel pump, you saved my car!!!! lets just hope it stays this way. thanks to everyone for their input and listening to my problems! i'm sure i'll have many more! hahahahaha OH YEA, i switched to the clutch fan before i got it running again, i wish it had never been switched to the electric fan. the best regulating temp i've seen on this rex. WOOT! today was a good day.

WOOOOHHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats! Glad to help. Now fix the other stuff and enjoy driving her!

 

hellz yea, i put some autolite plugs i had lying around in it cause i thought they were somewhat new, ick, they all wouldnt fire so it sounded all crappy. lol, so i couldnt drive it this morning to work. i'll have to get some NGK's later tonight but, she did fire right up first try! WOO WOOOOOOO!

 

I told you the autolite's suck.

 

LOL, i n0 i n0, i'm on a major major budget right now. hahahaha

 

Im testing autolites in my daily driver. So far no problems. Only 500 miles or so on them though.

 

hmm, it was weird. when i cranked it up with the autolites that i thought were fairly unused, it sounds like only one rotor was firing. ? odd.

 

ok, i pulled the plugs and noticed there was anti-seeze on the tips of a couple, so i cleaned them off and cleaned the plug holes a bit. cranked up beautifully for like 3 seconds then started it's crap again where it sounds like it's only firing a couple spark plugs. ARG.

 

Is this just at idle?????? It ran good last night right?

 

no, this morning it didnt want to do anything at all, no matter what rpm. i pulled the plugs, cleaned them off a bit, cranked it up again and it ran perfect for a few seconds then went back to the junk. it blips like the plug that isnt firing is trying to every now and then. weird. UGH

 

why don't u take all the plugs out ground each one and see if it's sparking then u'll atleast know which plug isn't sparking

 

DO you have a timing light? Use to to monitor each plug to see which is giving you trouble. Clamp on one plug wire at a time and watch the strobe. You may find that you have a bad iginter/, or plug/coil wire, or coil.

 

this is true. i will try and borrow a timing light tonight or tomorrow when i'm off. thanks!
