Well this is 2 yrs straight the Toy has died on the exact same day. I swear Nov is not working for me.
Don't know what happened but she fired right up initially.
Tried to get her in the garage and I stalled. The block would turn over but wouldn't fire. Looked @ battery gauge and it's down to the red, tried jumpin it but not enough fire could get it going.
So tonite I'll pull the plugs and see if they're foulded out again, check the coil and the opti while I'm at it too.

Just from swappin headers I get all this grief. Don't get it. Oh well. Who is selling a laptop? I'm curing this crap once and for all!

Hey man jump the camaro off the beater. It'll take a little while for the battery to charge but after a while you should have enough juice to turn it over. If not come by my house and you can use mine.

John I think the toy has a problem with the cold.J/K But it sounds like a ignition/fuel problem.

Opti is fairly new. Opened the gas cap and you know when it depressurizes? Well it didn't. SO I'm thinkin maybe the fuel pump died or there is still air in the lines from when it burnt to a crisp. I'm going to fill it up and see what happens.

Looks like I won't need it. It was the valve cover not being on properly. Underneath is dry as a whistle.
Good lookin out though! Dip stick tube and oil pressure sensor is what I NEED!

I point the fingure at george on the expensive part. When I pull my engine If I find it you can have mine. Not a problem on the part I'm glad to see those valve covers are working for you. It's funny how much oil can come from those.
