post the pictures... if its a light fire, you most likely have a good engine, but most of everything else has to be replaced.... ex wiring harnes, vac hoses, solenoids, sensors, etc

fix dis schit so wez kan tell joo wehather tew buy dis jointz





if you need to replace all the sensors, wiring harnesses, and every plastic part in the engine bay, buy another car cause you'll be spending thousands of dollars getting all that stuff and getting it to work properly

He was merely stating facts to back up what everyone else was saying Fikse. Since his friend has actually had this happen to him so real hands on experience.
