You still haven't learned to post Tech questions in Tech Talk. Thus the reason I moved this thread.

It's funny since you chose to mouth off to one of our more senior members about posting in the wrong place. Of course, you were wrong, but that didn't stop you from making yourself look even more foolish.

Any of this ring a bell, kid?

drifter_91 · 03-19-2009, 07:12 PM

ok thanks sorry for that

WTF are you on about??

USE A FUCKING PERIOD !!!!

Jesus, we can't help you if we dont understand.
Form your sentences better, and go back over what you wrote and make sure it makes sense.

It sounds like you are getting fuel.
It sounds like there is battery power. (radio, lights, fuel pump works).
does the engine crank.(starter tries to start the engine. Car makes a noise like its trying to start?)
If those things all work, then check if you are getting spark.

What did you do that caused this to happen? Was your car running prior?
you out of gas? (gauge broken? really, it happened to me embaressingly, and I know Kyle/soreballz remembers!)lol

Get back to us with some answers and we will try and help your car get back on track.
And it looks like you caught on to what the members here have said, and you are back on track

drifter_91 · 03-19-2009, 07:23 PM

ok the car is geting spark the engine cranks what else is just when i press the gas pedal is truns off no power

ericcastro · 03-19-2009, 07:42 PM

Like the car electrics cut out or the fuel cuts out and stalls the engine?

Was the car working before?

opponheimer · 03-19-2009, 08:09 PM

how many times can this dude spell the word "turns" wrong... So the car is getting fuel and spark, starts and shuts off?

If this is true then check your fuel pump relay, if an s14 its in ur kick panel, if s13 its under the hood. Just try swapping it out with another blue relay that goes to fans or A/c or something...

You need to be more descriptive, if your just gunna post some random jibberish and expect to get an answer maybe you should rethink your post content..

like.. Car Year, Car Engine (SR/KA/RB/CA), Modifications, All symptoms (KNOWNS AND UNKNOWNS(what you havent looked at yet)), etc..

drifter_91 · 03-20-2009, 12:05 AM

just swap sr20det red top in s13 hatch no electrics does not cut it cranks and stops it has intercooler and open downpipe the fuel pump its fine am check the relay

cc4usmc · 03-20-2009, 12:06 AM

Were you born in the U.S.?

ericcastro · 03-20-2009, 09:52 AM

Is the SR from a clip?

Do you know the last time the SR ran?

Maybe you need to try cranking it over a few more times, get some fuel in there.
Sometimes it takes a little bit to start once a fuel injected engine runs dry.

No other work was done to the engine?
So compression should be there and timing should be on?

koukimonster139 · 03-20-2009, 09:56 AM

haha this thread should be lit on fire

ericcastro · 03-20-2009, 10:09 AM

im still struggling to be a good premie member and help.
lol

rc1honda · 03-20-2009, 12:53 PM

Ahh man this give us chicago guys a bad name. Try checking your timing, check your spark pulgs and the gapping. Also multimeter your injectors or better yet pull them out and ground them to the valve cover and crank the car to see if they all are firing.

cc4usmc · 03-20-2009, 05:16 PM

Since you're in Chicago, go help the poor fucker out haha. Give him an English lesson too.

DataXUnknown · 03-20-2009, 05:22 PM

Did anyone suggest to check the mass air flow sensorrrr? You know if that thing was unplugged on mine and I hit the gas, mine would just bog and be lame and die.

Jonnyblaze · 03-20-2009, 06:25 PM

Does the car idle? Check the MAF.

ericcastro · 03-20-2009, 09:29 PM

Sooo, chech the MAF. lol

drifter_91 · 03-21-2009, 01:52 AM
