it is getting gas i can smell it when my girl turned the car over + it has a full tank. the timing wasnt touched and it has spark. richmond is near el cerritto, rodeo, hercules, but the car isnt in richmond it is in jamestown at my grandma's house because i was up here for vacation jamestown is near modesto, oakdale

Luserkid

Oh thats all North Cali. Sorry i cant stop by to help you.

Did you try turning it over while pressings the gas?

Also did you do a compression test?

Also check all your grounds. Take them all off, grind down the place they sit and put them back. Maybe that could help you.

Also try to push start it and see what happens.

man thats cool that you would help me out like that appreciate it i did not do a compresion check but it shoots air out when the spark plug is out so.. but why would i push the gas its fuel injected? thanks

95civickid

just to double check the fire order
/3 /4
1 /2


correct right it has been a while almost a month that i havent been able to drive her

Luserkid

Sometimes the throttle body gets stuck so you have to give it a little gas to get air in it. Its weird but ive seen this happen to 2 cars so far and holding the throttle works.

Your firing order is correct.

Dont forget its also: 4321(crankpully)
