only work that was done to the car before it first started
acting up were the routine oil change, and maybe a cleaning of
the k and n air filter, oh and the battery went out so it got
a new one of those also. before the car finally broke down some
times when i would push on the gas pedal it would hesitate a
second or so before reacting, other then that it ran fairly well
for me. It does have an auto start that does locks and trunk as well and that did go out before the car broke down, it slowly worked sometimes then not at all, i went over the wireing under
the dash and couldnt find anything that looked obvious while
i checked all the fuses, the wireing is now intact but the
unit has been unplugged and removed, after the car would
no longer stay running, i've changed the cap rotor spark plugs
spark plug wires the electronic control module, the 02 sensor
i've tried a new mass air flow sensor on it but it ran the same
so i took it back , the timeing i don't know much about but
have someone helping with that who has done a tune up for me
before and set it before, i've looked over the obvious showing
parts of the wireing harness and havent found anything but one
plug that appears a little burnt its grey with a red wire and
its located behind and to the left of the coil i've scanned for
error messages and i only get the code it gives to let you
know the system is working.
