having problems starting FD! help!!
Hey guys! im trying to figure out whats wrong with it. this is what i did so far:
- check the fuel pump / relays - good - check if theres a spark by takin out the plugwires with the plugs and i get the spark - im getting spark - should i replace the spark plugs? car was sitting for about six months in the garage but i made sure of getting her warmed up everyday. - should i change the fuel filter?? it looks like im not getting enough gas when im trying to start it.. filter was change also last year.. its not turning over when im trying to start it it goes for like 3 second and dies out... what could this be?? it will be appriciated any suggestion from you guys. thanks. |
Put in new plugs and make sure you have some decent gas in it.

it will only crank for 3 sec? is the battery good?
|
turn over means cumbustion for 3 seconds and dies out, yes my battery is good..
|
Make sure all the sensors are connected. Sounds like the computer is seeing something disconected and purposely turning it off.

i got the car started by some good help.. the car was flooded, i took out the spark plugs and they are all wet from trailing to leading plugs.. so i did the trick got it started but rough idle and for some reason my cat looks like is gonna explode ;( , did anyone ever got this kind of problem? ive check all of the following by using a voltimeter on readings : Coil , spark wires , injectors , fuel pressure from the pump and they are all good, is there anything more i could check for this issue? thanks for replies.

you mean the converter looks bulged? it may be collapsed. which will cause a rough idle etc.. put you hand over the exhaust pipe do you feel even pulses? that get stronger when the engine is reved?
