Started 10hrs ago, wont start now..
Alright my 92 RS wont start anymore. (have the 5.0)
I have noticed a lack of power, so I got a bunch of things for a little tune up.
I replaced my shocks, struts, fuel filter, O2, PCV, Air filter, Oil filter, fresh oil etc.
I go to replace one of the spark plugs and notice the gap was .030 so I changed it to .045 like it was originally set for. Replace the Wire aswell. Go to start up my car, and it just doesnt want to run. It'll turn over just fine. Thinking I was out of gas I walk to the Gas station and get 2 gallons.
Get home and throw it in the tank, again nothing.
Battery dead?? I try using a jump box nothing...
Last night and this morning for the past few hours all I did was replace the shocks, struts, tried to drop my tank but didnt have the clearance, and wasnt gunna cut my exaust. I put everything back together. And when I go to hook up my exaust the little cardboard piece in the middle breaks. (it was already broken when I got it so didnt think anything of it) so I just toss it and I dont get anything out of her...
So my question is, where is my problem? I even replaced my sparkplug, and wire back to the one that was in it just in case.. but im stumped, and I got a **** load of stuff to do today. And I cant figure it out...

Alright it was an Exaust Gasket.
But im looking on the Autozone website and I cant find it...
But its triangular, with a big hole in the middle of it (for exaust of course)
and then it has 3 smaller holes for 3 screws.
But I dont think this would be a starting problem??

Re: Started 10hrs ago, wont start now..
when you tried to drop the tank did you unplug the fuel pump connector? If so did you plug it back in? If I'm reading this correctly it cranks but doesnt start correct? I'm gonna guess it's either fuel or spark thats missing.. which is it? Have you tried starting fluid?
