What the HELL are you doing now???



They look like they have been burning rather rich.

Change them.

Check the air filter.

P.S. Wires? How do they look?

started it up, moved it a few feet, then shut it off...isn't that bad practice?

ran it to operating temp..then put her away.....i needed to start her up...i miss her

and the beater has no wires!!!!!!!!!!well outside i go

no luck...n e chance this could be fuel line freezeup??it started once then died...and after that it jus cranks and aaalmost starts

wtf??oo and im jumpin the car..could the battery be too dead to jump?

How do you know that? The conductors look fine to me. I am not trying to be a smart ass...I really want to know. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif

they look a little darker that what i'm used to coming out of a rotary

How long has it been sitting?

plugs might be original, change them and dont worry about it.

When it stops running, worry about it. Do a full tune up while you are

there.

were all the plugs the same type of AC plug? either the plug number is

like 5 numbers long, or that one thats darker is a different number alltogether

Maybe its the wrong heat range.

Get a fresh battery. Some cars will just not run with a weak battery. Jumping it isn't enough. You need full voltage to the brain box and the fuel system.

if it started and died I would say you have a fuel problem, try some starter fluid

just to see if that gets it going. Put some gas anti-feeze in the tank as well.

Because they look all wet, black, and oily.

They should be nice and dry and tan.



Don't forget to check the air filter.

Did you get her running.

Yes, you may have got some water in your fuel.
