car wont start? not getting primed?
Hi, I have a 87 turbo - which as of late has all of a sudden decided not to start. We checked the alternator and batterie and both are working fine. When we try to start the car, the starter tries to start the car up, but it simply never does. We can push start the car with relative ease, and the car starts up, and idles just fine, and it it runs just fine without ever wanting to stall or anything. My brother said that maybe the car is not getting primed. Any help on this would be appreciated.

Pretty sure that its just flooding. When it turns over, does it do it fast? If so, flooding. Pull the EGI COMP fuse, put your foot to the floor and let it turn over for a good 20 seconds or so. Then put the fuse back and it should go.
Also Search for flooding and you should pull up a ba-zillion and one how to threads. good luck.
