Dont know hasnt come in the mail yet, It died today on me when i was dropping it off at the mechanics to change my tie-boots.(i would do them myself but living on a 3rd floor apartment and w/o the right tools ill have to suck that one up). I will do the exhaust myself. Im pretty sure it just needs a fuel pump relay, have one on order and will get it tomorrow. Wish me luck on that. After all this i should be able to pass saftey then im on to the battle of emissions.

Okay my car wont run. Changed realy that is right above the hood release. (fuel pump relay?) and it started..ran for a minute and died. Will not start up after that. I have no fuel pressure. Fuel pump maybe? Im worried because the guy i bought this from has some kind of vtech controller wired into the ECU and this car doesnt have vtech. So i dont know if its something hes messed up. He told me if it had problems starting to kick that relay and replace it if that didnt work. well nethier worked so????
