The iacv checked out okay today.

I was thinking what else could be the problem. Maybe bad gas? I was thinking that it could have been the gas so I tried to siphon the gas through the gas filler but for some reason the siphon tube would not go all the way to reach the fuel. So I removed the gas tank cover, where the fuel pump is attached to. I opened it and saw my problem. I couldnt believe my eyes. The rubber fuel line where the fuel pump attaches to the fuel sender was almost completly dissolved. only a little portion of the rubber was left. I think it could have been very bad gas. I replaced the rubber fuel line and the car starts like new. Thanks for everyones help.

I also have one last problem. When I open my gas cap, It sounds like when you open a soda bottle and the pressure comes out. Is this normal on sr20 swaps?
