    Help! dont want to push start my car anymore..

    Sounds like your alternator isn't working. Need to put a voltmeter on the battery while the car is running to see if it is being charged by the alternator. If you see the volts continually drop while the car is idling that is your problem most likely.

    Help! dont want to push start my car anymore..

    My problem is the car cranks and cranks and then will finally start, mostly in cold weather. I think my issue is different then most of yours? It sounds like you guys aren't cranking, but just hearing a clicking. Anyone have this issue?

    Thermostat housing sensor --> broken wire

    Yeah, like jetjock said, you can push the pins out through the back of the connectors, I found the light green/red stripe wire, which is suppose to go right behind/below the thermo housing. I just popped the pins out and used some speaker wire to fix them. I will later try to get these...

    Thermostat housing sensor --> broken wire

    Okay that is good, I have no clue where the other light green/red stripe goes, let me know what you find. Also, I don't know how I am going to solder the blue wire back on since the wire in the blue connector is fubar and really short, they must pop out though im assuming so they can be...

    Testing Coils

    The resistance for whatever reason wasn't giving me any good readings. I am not sure what is going on. I was able to test the resistance of the coil wire and it was within spec. I just bought another coil set, because I looked at the number 1 spark plug wire going to the coil and it looked...

    Testing Coils

    No i didn't crank it, from what I was reading the ignition just had to be in the on position, when checking the voltage, right? I know this unit is working, since I was able to check the voltage on my battery. Also, does anyone know if the 87 (green connector) 7mgte coil packs will work on my...

    Testing Coils

    So, I checked my timing today, because my car has been running like crap. I couldn't believe how off it was, it wasn't even anywhere near the timing numbers. I adjusted to 10 degrees and it is running great. I am still having a very slight miss, and I went to test the coils, because I checked...

    Car feels faster at times?

    Yeah I can see it happening, those hoses get hard like a rock, hairline cracks maybe can open at certain boost ranges. I need to get a hard pipe kit soon.
