> The only thing is I don’t have access to stuff to change or check stuff like the fuel pump since i’m pretty sure on those years it’s on the tank, that’d be impossible to change in the parking lot of an apt. complex. I’m going to have to bring it somewhere to have it checked out I think. I’m not sure where Bellvue is or where your location is but we live in Houston now so I don’t think I’m close to anyone on this site…thanks for the offer though.

jon… stop being a pussy! you can change a fuel pump in a parking lot… haha… if it’s an intank pull the rear seat, there will be a metal circle with some screws… if it’s under the car, get a jack stand! those are easy to change becuase they don’t really require anything other than the pain in the ass fuel line release clips and about an iced tea carton of gas spilled…

you can check the fuel pressure at the front of the car also, to see if at least at idle it’s fully powering up… ti’s not the easiest thing to do, but can be done… ghetto splicing a fuel gauge is a no no, but will work!

listen to these guys that owned them though, i have no idea.

do you feel a good amount of exhaust coming out of the tailpipe… i’m still leaning towards a clogged cat…

i think the closest person to you would be the kid that moved to AZ or TJ out in Santa Cruz CA 🙂
