Hello again, now I really need some help, fast! Yesturday after work my car wouldn't start, it cranked but didnt turnover, which was weird because earlier that morning it started quickly. I came back a couple hours later and it still wouldn't start so I popped the hood and found what I thought was the problem, a spark plug was sticking half way out. So I pushed it back in and the car started up 10 minutes later. But now the morning after I went to start it and all it did was crank, FUCK! So I looked under the hood and saw the same spark plug was sticking out again, so I pushed it back in harder. It's now been over 3 hours later tho, and it still wont start, what's the problem? Please help me soon, because thats all I got! Thanx :(

ok you are saying a "spark plug was sticking out" thats impossible unless you are talking about the spark plug wires that keep slipping off the tip of the spark plug... am i right? If so, maybe you can get some plyers, and lightly squeeze the tip of the spark plug wire tunnel end so that it will have a tighter squeeze and hold when you put it back on the spark plug.

Yeah, sry, it was the spark plug wires. I did finally get my car to start again, so I went and bought and new battery at K-Mart. I know the battery probly wasn't the problem but I get stuff cheap at K-Mart, you could even say it was a steal. :D But anyways, I will try your idea, thanx for the help, I just wait and see what happens now. :frog:

branman: Make sure the spark plug connected to the wire that is slipping is all the way in. If the spark plug is a little unplugged u may be getting blow by that is pushing the wire off. Or it could just be that the wire is old and will never make a good connection again.
