Having a problem with my car not starting (89 turbo).
Was starting fine last year, but havent used it since, changed the clutch and everything went to start up heres what happens:
- 1st time I heard a click and all lights went out, put it in off position and turned it back on, no lights would even come on
- disconnected battery and reconnected, lights would show up again
- went to start, same thing, click noise, lights out and wont come back on again
- reconnected battery, left the clutch in and tried to start (obviously would not start because of safety switch)
- went to start again, starter turning, can smell exhaust fumes and motor turning, can hear some combustion, pulses from exhaust, but would not start
Any ideas?
also fuel meter shows half full, could it still be an issue of bad gas? Im pretty sure some of the gas has been in there for some time (maybe 3 years?)
