Justin's Car Started!!!! But still probs.
Hey all, finally got my rebiuld started (well actually my dad and step-dad did). They said that it was being towed at 30mph in 2nd gear, and that my step-dad had top pump the gas to get it to go, but then it ran on its own. My dad is pretty sure that I have some kind of a fuel delivery problem. I am wondering if maybe I could have mixed the injector plugs, but I would figure it wouldn't run at all correct?
Some other things it could be. It has gas that is a couple of months old, I am going to fill it up the rest of the way with new gas and chevron techron bottle (hell I get it for free). Replace the engine bay fuel pump. I also need to set the TPS. Any other suggestions.
I am also having problems with the stupid water themo sensor. My ECU checker lights are spitting the code, so I changed my sensor. No good I am still getting the error, I think the wiring in my car is f-ed, but I am really hoping that this isn't so, but you never know.
I am starting to not make sense to myself so its time for bead, but I am super stoked that it started

I got my rebuild going with 10 month old gas so I wouldn't be too concerned with 2 month old stuff.
What is an engine bay fuel pump if you don't mind me asking?
Re. the thermo sensor: mine had its leads completely broken off and the car still ran fine. I eventually replaced it but the car didn't change. It runs fine the way it always has.
