Ok compression, spark, fuel (even though i can smell gas), and intake leaks? Anything else to check?

 

Pressure test cooling system to see if you blew a coolant seal.

 

I know I didn't (no overflow or boiling or hissing) but I will check it none the less.

 

Well Rico we are in the same boat, only my car is a hour from home, can't wait to get it and start doing some trouble shooting.
I really hope our engines aren't blown, I can't afford anything right now.
Good luck man, let me know what you find out.

 

Well, talked to mom,and she is gonna help me get my Miata if the ol Rex is shot (I have to drive around her Saturn and sell it for her first YUCK) but if my baby is gone, I WILL BE BACK, just in a few years, and with a S5 TII. Good luck with your car man!!

 

Is that the twin cam saturn Rico ? I heard they were pretty fast LOL...sorry had to do it. But it sure beats the hell outta walking. Gotta luv the moms she will always help you out! Ok now everyone go call your mom and tell her you love her

 

Yeah, she feels bad cuz she went psycho on me about 3 weeks ago, called me a "f'ing loser" and kicked me out. Guilt rules!! Anyway, yeah a Twin Cam. Actually, it is pretty zippy. The only problem is she smokes like a freight train, so it smells bad, but a car is a car when you're walkin otherwise!! I want my Rex to run, but 3 friend s and I dinked w/ it last night and the all say popped. I will do the stuff suggested above, but I am not hoping for the best.

 

rico check for spark at the igniters

 

Doin that as soon as I get home. Last time I got shocked tryin to do that when I thought I fried the engine like 4 months ago. I will be more careful this time!!

 

lol i remeber that

just dont lean or touch the car

 

the reason i say this is because you say the car has power at 4.5 k rpms right???

 

I guess. I haven't driven it since Monday. It *felt* like it wanted to pull above 5k. Also, it revvs just fine.

 

As I stated in your prior thread, swap your Primary injectors with your Secondaries. Don't give up on your ride untill you have at least tried it. My 88 'vert behaved exactly like this and I gave up on it and went out and bought a new WRX. The RX sat for 3 months before I said f**K it and tried this. It started and idled like a champ. Now I feel like a jackass though because I just dropped 30k on a new car and all I really needed was a couple hundred bucks for new injectors. Still though, WRX is nice .
