Courage the Cowardly Dog |
Did you check the flux capacitor? I remember when that happened to my old Malibu it turns out it was so damn old the fly wheel had bald spots not from holding the key down but actual wear and tear. Then I blew the engine out racing. God I miss that car. I was hoping to lose my virginity in the back seat ![]() |

Angryhydralisk | I picked the most convienient time to wreck and have my car mess up. Tarc'ing and six blocks of walking to work in the cold. FUN! | ||

MetalMilitia | You'd think so wouldn't you, but apparently you only flood it more if you pump the peddle. | ||

If it was flooded and the guy kept the peddle pressed for 5 minutes that would be flooding it more unless you had no gas and he put gas in it and then started it and that would mean you're a girl. |

MetalMilitia | I got it fixed. Apparently the engine was just flooded so the guy kept the accelerator pushed down while turning over the starter for, like 5 minuites, then a ton of smoke pissed out the exaust and now all is well. | ||

The leads are the things connecting the spark plugs and possibly the distributor cap. When I say I replaced them what I really mean is I watched as one of my friends replaced them. Anyway I just called the AA and they should be here in about 15 minuites ![]() |

Wiffle Bat | based on your vague diagnosis, it could be the carburettor/ and-or the Fuel injection system. Also, make sure oil is always up to level as some cars will stall often if oil level is too low. | ||

There are plenty of possibilities The wire leading from the starter to your battery could be disconnected... check this first. The ring gear of your flywheel could be broken In your car, are your starter and solenoid connected or separate? My advice? call a mechanic. |

i just got word from one chevy casanova (just kidding it's noob3!) that a most excellent way to keep those romantic fires lit is to spray a little febreeze where it counts wink wink also i'd like to add that DO NOT buy an air freshner without checking to see if your car is allergic dont be irresponsible whoa mama word is from one dodge darling from south dakota (just kidding again it's noob3 thanks noob3!!!) that keeping yours locked is just one good way to make sure they stay safe and secure for the holidays! |

how to treat your car right hold it in your lap and cradle its head dont ever leave it alone not for a minute understand that sometimes a car just has a bad day do something unexpected fill her up with premium (you should do this while wearing aviator sunglasses and holding a pizza (a scarf too if it's been a long time)) learn its likes and dislikes do a sexy display in front of it i like to take two naked girl silhouette mudflaps and pretend theyre making out hotttt ask permission to shift gears up or down thats all |

BlueOatmeal | My old truck did that all the godamn time. The mechanic told me I wasn't getting fuel to the pump or something like that. I didn't pay attention to him. | ||

FartinMowler | How old is your car? if it has a carb and you flood it wait for 20 minutes and try again. If it is fuel injected you shouldn't step on the fuel when you start the car...It's only fuel air spark...anything else and you need to take it in. | ||

I'll give it a try but it sounds more like not enough fuel is getting to the engine in the first place. :/ I'm actually getting a new car soon anyway but I need to be able to drive this one home from university (about 50 miles) |

My girlfriend's car did that for awhile and eventually her exhaust exploded. My buddy who works on cars told me that not all the fuel was burning up in the engine and was being transferred into the exhaust. You can check for this by standing behind your car when it is running, if it smells like gasoline coming out of the exhaust, then you have the same problem. |
