So because so many different things have happened since my last post i decided to start a new one. So here is the update: I got the new igniter put it in, car fired right up a lot easier. I was able to drive it and move it but the moment I let go of the gas pedal it died. Sprayed starting fluid fired up, let go of the throttle it died. We thought it might be the cat because there was a heavy gas smell when th car did fire up. started it once we removed the cat, it fired up but still would not hold once the throttle was let go. Changed the fuel filter, the old one was clogged, checked the pressure on the fuel, everything checked out. Injectors are getting signal just fine. now we are stumped.
Before anyone says ECU, we have swapped ecu's and it didnt change anything. So at this point any Idea's would be greatly appreciated. This post has been edited by gotian: Jul 20, 2012 - 7:35 AM |

Okay so I cleaned all the grounds. I found on the starter ground that out had melted the plastic casing and out covered the metal contact point. Car fires up without hesitation but it still won't stay on. It sits down right away. I pulled the plugs, they were extremely fouled with black carbon build up. I will change them in a bit. In the likeliness that the new plug don't do the trick could the timing be of from installing the new distributor?
