Yeah let me just break it down for you... And tell me what you guys think...

I did the wires and plugs last monday. It took 4 1/2 hours, complements of aftermarket SLP headers.

Started her up, it ran great, better than before! Went to my house about 40 blocks away, turned her off. Then a few hours later drove her 15 miles to rt. 22 Best Buy. She ran good the whole way there, but coolant may have leaked earlier before leaving, IDK but I had to stop to buy coolant cuz I had none in the system so I will assume since it's not magic coolant or invisible coolant that it most likely leaked.

SO after I filled that in I continued to Best Buy, parked in the lot STILL RUNNING GOOD, and went into the store for like 40 min.

Came out and started her, and she was barely running so my first thought was I shoulda let it warm up but it wasn't cold so that's not it. I parked it about 30ft from the original spot and had to be towed home.

Then I let it sit 2 days, it started up strong, moved it to a real parking spot nstead of a meter, and there it has stayed because when I tried starting it to bring it to my mechanic friends, it didn't work. I turned it on and it was strong, but turned off like 5sec later and then it went back to just cranking and cranking and not turning on.

What do you guys think?

Opti?
