couple weeks ago I removed most of the ac and heater elements. after I did that I went to start the car. it doesn't start. the car will turno over and starts up but will then immediatley die. it doesn;t even give me the chance to rev before it dies. I thought the battery was dead so I took the battery out of my daily driver hond civic but still no start. what could be wrong? thanks in advance.

 

you check all the wiring/ grounds in the vicinity of your removed components?

 

I checked and nothing seemed out of place. the only ground I undid was the one on the eletric fan but that was removed. anybody have any other ideas?

 

The most common cause of the start & die deal is a bad AFM connection, or a big vac leak.

 

thanks. I did happen to wack the afm. maybe I f'd that up :-\
