Default d16z6

Hey guys, I was driving home from work today, car started up no problem , i get home eat dinner, go out to start it half hour later nothen, lots of power, so i was like ok starter might be gone? .. So i jump started it, it started up but made a terrible noise, start bogging back firing and the check engine light was coming on and off, so i went back home and turned it off, and there it sits? Any suggestions on what it is?

Describe this terrible noise and why you think the starter might have something to do with it.

You'll still have it stored in the ECU. Check what the code was, by the symptoms, it may be possible that you jumped timing. Hard to tell over the internet though.

We should set up a "Worst first post" thread, this guy would be in the top 5 at least. Don't post worthless BS like this anymore.

Seriously. Don't just go posting info that you have no idea what the cause or fix is.
