after doing some research (and procrastinating) i have figured out that my ignition signal circuit is messed up.
that, however, is something i don't really have much knowledge of. my car wouldnt start on occasion sometimes but i figured it was just a bad starter because eventually it would start after a few tries. But me being the poor kid that i am, i never got around to fixing it. but anyways could someone please explain to me what needs to be done/ checked in detail?

lol the places to get them are foreign to me tongue.gif
but i'll check that here in a minute. i'm going to check continuity of the ignition switch first. i did some more reading of the BGB manual. woop.


i have to wait for someone else to get home before i check the fuel pump, but it might be hard to hear since my fans run all the time and i dont know how loud the fuel pump would be.

do you know what would cause that plume of smoke to come out of the exhaust upon starting? it only does it if i have to try and start many many times
