Re: Which Fluids?

lol sorry about that, there was a lot wrong with the car. to start off the fuel pump was bad and needed to be replaced along with the sending unit. so we got that done and still no prevail. after that we decided to replace the ignition module, cap n rotor, plugs and wires and the battery terminal. then we found the main culprit. The map sensor had gone bad. so we had the car running for about 5 minutes and then the belt snapped of course. got a new belt on and we started having the same problems again, lots of crank but no start. Then we had to rip off the intake and replace the cpi unit and regulator, also replaced the EGR valve while we were at it. luckily my friend at the junkyard was able to get us the cpi and EGR for free, i didn't feel like paying another $450 or so which is $50 more then i paid for the truck. Now that all of that is out of the way though, she runs great. no problems at all beyond a small short involving the horn and interrior lights.
