how many times do we have to go over this, lol, read the posts from the start young man!



1:Pull spark plugs out

2:Pull out both fuses

3:Attatch battery charger and set it to full charge/jump start

4:Crank engine over in 10 second intervals, giving the starter 20 seconds or so to cool off. Do this about 10-15 times

5: put both fuses back in as well as the spark plugs

6: get in the car, and try to start it, if it doesnt start RIGHT AWAY do the following:

7: reach under the dash and disconnect that wiring harness that I took a pic of, its to the right of the steering column. With one hand on the wiring harness getting ready to plug it back in when the car starts and one hand on the ignition key, try to start the car, gently push the harness in to make contact while trying to crank it over, if it starts plug the harness back in all the way, if it doesnt start immediatly, pull that harness apart again and keep trying. It SHOULD run with steps 1-6 though.

and make sure you put the trailing and leading plugs back in the right places, and make sure you have the firing order right,



T1-T2 (top set of plugs)

L1-L2 (bottom set of plugs)



1 is towards the front of the car, 2 is towards the windshield.
