I was drivin in 4th or 5 th gear at about 2500 rpm and i noticed that my gas pedle stopped working and my gar began to "bogg out" i began to gear down and still my car was "bogging out" my car then shut off so i put it into nutral and coasted it to the side of the road were i than began to smell something burning...ever since that moment my car would not start up again..it would turn over to the point it sounds like its jusssst about to start but it wjuss wont fire up!! i dont know what is wrong with it can anyone help?

 

start with the basics. are u getting spark? fuel? do you have compresion? check all your fuses and grounds. any codes from ECU?

 

hope it not your T belt

 

Have you checked your fluids? Was it running really hot or anything?

 

BURNING SMELL!!!! ewwwwww..... sounds like a blet...

 

what happens if its my t- belt? and yaa my fluids are good.. oils topped rads topped ummm nothign leaking...yaa i was told it could be my timing belt and if so what does that mean? n how much is it to fix?

 

If it is in fact your timing belt, there is a good chance that some hardcore engine damage was done, probably from your pistons slamming into your valves in the most violent manner...

Let's hope it wasn't a timing belt.

FUUCKKKKK!!!!!! I HOPEEE I HOPPEE ITS NOTT i was ready to sell my car too! omg

 

its really to bad that people dont pay more attention to these thing.i $40 timing belt could save your motor and yet so many people always over look it when doing a tune up.take your cover off and see if its snapped.check to see if any of the teeth are missing,thats were i would start.if so its time to start disecting it and seeing if there is anything salvageable besided the block.

 

alright thnx phobia....im not so inclined with engines so iwas just wondering how often do these belts go and what are some signs that mine is wearing out ect.. tnx alot guys
