Battery is new, just bought day before yesterday, and it tests fine too. I accidently pulled a black wire with a blueish stripe on it off the starter, it's ~12 gauge in width... gotta figure that out first, then to the other many issues.

Today I put some 93* in the tank and tried to start the car. It started but wouldn't rev without dying, after 2 more starts like this all it does is sputter, almost start and die out. It was starting up and running every time yesterday but now won't. I am guessing that the sock on the new...

Lemme correct you... "Looks RICE to me...... LMK what you think!" J/K, good deal!

After removing the access cover in the hatch and unplugging the two wiring harnesses, I just popped the drain plug and let all the gas out into a cooler (too much gas for my drain pan) then used the convienient spigot on the bottom of the cooler to drain into a gas can. After the fumes went away...

I guess it's just an old habit, since I am a ford guy as well. Thanks for the heads up.

Damn Straight!!!

my 1.3 swift was pretty quick and it had no 1st gear and a slipping clutch.... but still it would top out at like 105 max, it just had good acceleration.

It's more than kinda sad (were it true), a 1L 3 cylinder 55hp econobox beating a sports car with a 3L I6 and 200 hp, is IMO pitiful, I don't care, heavier or not. If this thread weren't some sort of inside joke, it would permanently change my opinion about MKIIIs for the worst. I mean honestly...

my '95 'zuki swift had a 1.3L 4banger with 70 hp
