a while ago muh battery was put on backwards and muh car wouldn't even get spark....after months i finally got tha engine to turn on.....it turns on with no problem except that i have to keep muh foot on tha gas....it doesn't idle....any ideas??....i was thinkin that maybe its cuz its been sittin for about 6 months.....and i did tha atf trick on it....thats wat actually got it to turn on.....but like i said i have to idle so if i get muh foot of tha gas it shuts off....plus muh exhaust manifold and cat got cherry red when i started it....but i figure thats juz cuz of tha atf and carbon...any help or ideas please help....thankz

The atf trick will clog your cats thats why the glow like that.As for your Idle problem I mentioned in another thread exactly like this that you might want to check for vaccum leaks make sure all the hoses are good too.Change the cats with a race pipe or new cats.My friends idle was screwed up when his exhaust got a leak in it.It idled erracticly.Now it's nice and steady.

I am having the exact same problem that you are and I did the same thing you did. Have you got it fixed yet my car has been down for about 2 months.

I could really use some help, thanks

i heard you could have a leak in the intake manifold https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif
