Re: Car turns over .. no start .. suggestions on where to start please

Lights have come on without issue every time I've tried to start car.

So far the problem has only occurred when the car is stone cold. I'm to scared to drive it anywhere as it is.

Re: Car turns over .. no start .. suggestions on where to start please

Thanks,

I'll run through the basics this afternoon. The good news is it died right outside my garage. I'm gonna try to push it in so I can work on it. It is still raining here.

Re: AC question ...Low side=Vacum Hi side= 65psi

UPDATE:
Picked up a new set of valve cores and went to replace the one that was leaking and it was stuck! It would unscrew to a point but the plunger was hooked on something in the port. I think I...

Re: AC question ...Low side=Vacum Hi side= 65psi
