    still not starting, tried everything

    ^^He's probably checked all of his fuses by now. I'm guessing that having polarity's reversed would heat things up a bit? Maybe you have some melted wiring somewhere that you aren't seeing? I would go around with a multimeter and check everything that's needed to start...cps, coil packs...

    Time for some Maintenance/Repair Qs

    Yea, I was able to get my vc gaskets two times at autozone, and they were in stock for $30 (Fel-Pro)... As for the water pump...mine was leaking as well...i just replaced it, and put a layer of silicone all the way around it's gasket and it hasn't leaked since...It's really easy to replace...

    How can I clean this connection!

    yea, clean them with a little screwdriver and some carb cleaner...then you could also take some needle-nose pliers and bend the contacts together for a better connection. Mine would work intermittently until I bent them together a little..

    wtf is up w/ 100amp alternator fuse

    Wow, I put "listened to them"...lol, I wonder what I was thinking. As for torque...I tightened them as hard as I could w/out the screws stripping... I tried to get hex bolts to replace the screws, but Autozone didn't have any that matched and no way to adapt a philips bit to a 1/2in drive...

    wtf is up w/ 100amp alternator fuse

    Why doesn't the TSRM tell you to use silicone on the valve cover gaskets? I listened to them, and had so much oil leaking that my car looked like it was on fire when I pulled up to a light after installing them...replaced them and put silicone, and all was dry again :).
