i dont know whats wrong. this is what happens...some times it starts right up. other times and take a few more seconds, thats when the engine light is on. when the engins light is on after 4500 or so when reving it up. it boggs out like a studder . but then other times it would start right up and drive fine. i think maybe something it loose. it just one day it started doing it.

Default Re: Need some help

Well... thanks for the good props there NoRev... I know this is not what you want to hear but its what im gonna tell you because im straight forward. Electrical troubleshooting is the worst. I can sit for hours looking and looking and looking... and it seems as if your car is not something very straight forward and i will not touch it for just beer (which i dont drink)...
If your an electrical guy yourself have fun... if your not then you better hope you have a friend that is. Unless you feel like paying somebody who is like myself.
NoRev situation was easy... he explained it and i knew what it was almost emmediately. This is way different.

A friend's car use to do that due to faulty wiring of the fuel pump. Sometimes it would take 15 minutes to finally get it to start. Try it if you have an inline pump. The bogging sounds like it could also be a fuel problem.

UMMM...some good ideas. but i dont think fuel pump.and seriously i dont really think its wireing. wireing is fine. i even pretty much re-did the ecu wireing. and dxplicitone- I have a pare of lenso's 13x8x22 with MH's. Maybe you could hook it up.
