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? -------------------- **If you play My Brute, joing the 6gc.net clan!**

well i got my ignition coil, spark plugs, rotor, and starter changed in order to fix the problem. costing me exactly 700 dollars, replaced with Toyota parts.
but get this, on the way home from work that same day i picked it up, i hear a loud pop and my battery light comes on in my gauge cluster. then everything starts to dim, i immediatly pull over and call my dad. its about 11 at night and we were forced to push the car all the way back to my mechanic on the hilly roads of bowling green 2 miles away. its some bull****. so now i need to replace my water pump which went out and i might as well do my timing belt so theres another 500 dollars. i already maxed out my card to pay for the 700 dollar repair.. its a damn money pit. sorry for the rant but i am beyond pissed off. -------------------- **If you play My Brute, joing the 6gc.net clan!**
