this is funny.

when you click the key over to posisiton number II, do you hear the fuel pump prime?

when you start the car does the starter click? what are you wearing right now? do the instrument lights go out when you try to crank the car? does it turn over but not start?

are you getting spark? are you getting fuel? do you know how to check for these things?

Its an automatic.

I know there is no reason why the car shouldn't start, it doesn't make sense to me either.

It makes like this whining noise whenever I turn it over and try to turn it on for about 4 seconds.

Its like it wants to start but it can't

GAH!

Ok so I tried it again and when it was starting I gave it some gas but it didn't rev up or anything wtf.....

I swear it as to do with the dry ice thing...you think dry ice made the gas evaporate?

bro the dry ice had nothing to do with gas evaporating the gas is in a sealed system.

maybe you flooded the car with all that gas tring to start it, did you pull the plugs?

try new plugs! happend to me once, car wouldnt start for some odd reason? replaced plugs fixed it right away

WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I FINALLY GOT IT TO START!!!!!!!!


I just kept cranking it and giving the gas pedal a good pedalin' and then it started and I just kept my foot on the gas till it revved all the way up and now it up and running.

That was the most wierdest experience ever....

maybe the dry ice caused some condensation in the fuel line?
