I replaced the fuel pump, spark plugs and took the plenum off, and then replaced the gasket and started driving my baby again.  When I step on the gas real hard it boggs and if I step on it light it drives pretty good.  IT almost stumbles and sounds like it putting along , when it starts instead of a nice spoooling sound .  I want to know , how do you know if its a waste gate problem or a leaky valve line or what ......help

thanks alot , i got the car started this weekend , it was the fuel pump and the crank case sensor :P

yes, when I changed my spark plugs and wires my daughter turned the key to ignition and while she turned the key , I had the spark plug up against the plenum and I could see the spark.  I did not use a gauge or any thing  :roll:

I finally got that bolt off, and checked the fuel injectors and each one read 12.6 and 12.5 ohms , I am checking to see if that is right or did I do something wrong.. and if it isn't the injectors how do you check the throttle body.. Oh by the way I am the one who changed the fuel pump , plugs, wires , fuel filter , pcv valve and it still does not start........ :twisted:

I tried a wrench , it is also to close to get all the open end around it... :oops:

how do you get the bolt off from the plenum, the second one from the right, I can not get a socket or a open end wrench around it either , please help :(

some one please tell me , what do you use to get the second bolt from the right off of the plenum, it a long bolt and I can not get a socket on it because it is to close to the plenum.... :twisted:

my car ran bad for about two weeks , it kind of hesitated at the start until the turbo kicked in , then finally it stalled.  It would not start so I towed it home I changed the plugs, wires, dropped the fuel tank and changed the fuel pump and yes it is man hours :twisted: I talked with jeff m and he thought it might be my fuel pressure regulator so i tested and that was not it , does any one have any advice please :evil:
