well i tryed staring up this 90 gxl with a pretty new rebuilt engine which used to work perfect but was crashed and sat for 9 months



i put a new battery and tryed starting it

it would turn over and all belts would slowly go around with only jumpstart power, it just wouldnt turn on or come on all the way, and this will only happen with a jump start..... could that have anything to do with the alternator or flooding???



what do you think happened or what do i need to do to get it up and running?

lol when I got my 83 started after sitting for a year I had to use 2 cars to jump it! lol before you start the car I would change the oil, new water and it might start easyer on some new plugs.....good luck!

thanx

im going to see if my spark plugs are soaked in oil or what



and yeah thanx man, i really want to get this car running

fresh battery, unplug the efi/egi fuses and crank the engine at 20 second intervals until it sounds normall. You may also want to use another car to jump it or a battery charger to make sure you dont drain your new battery.



Then plug the fuses back in and start it up. I dont know how much you cranked it already, but if you didnt pull the fuses you flooded it by now.



Change the oil after you start it as it now has gas in it.

i already tryed to crank it and didnt unplug anything so you think its flooded now??



whats the best way to deflood it?

should i clean all four of the spark plugs good and then put jus a lil bit of oil into the the bottom 2 sparkplug holes and then try to crank?



how should i do this???

If you already flooded it.. try what rob said about unplugging the EGI/EFI fuse... and clean you plugs too.. Check the the trailing wires are going to the top plugs and the leading wires to the bottom plugs and make sure you have the correct plugs too..

i was told after a while of sitting the seals strink and it loses compression. The best way to save a battery, is get a tow strap and getting towed at about 60 mph in gear and the seals should swell back up. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

Your serious? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif

alright well i tryed pratically everything, even switching the spark plugs from my other 7, i put gas, looked everywhere for everything and anything



so i guess what i did wrong was.... not unplugging the EGI/EFI fuse, but which exactly is this???

i have no idea

so somebody help out here

and what are you talking about???

and plus this car i just got ha[pens to be a f^$&^( automatic
