If you’re low on coolant, it wont start. Coolant temp sensor for a mitsu needs to have coolant in it for the ecu or else it wont start at all. ---

> [@psphinx81](#): > > he bought the car in ohio… and with it cammed im sure they would fuck with him Exactly plus even if they do fix this. they will take note of the mods and when I blow the motor and swap it back to stock to get it fixed I will be screwed. So its not worth plus it has to be flat bedded there and back becouse its off the road. why when I can drag paul over here throw back a few (hot chocolets). and get it running, I agree its probibly somthin Stupid. ---

take one of the existing plugs with you, just in case they happen to be a step colder for tune purposes. ---

I have stock and one step colder than stock NGK’s for the Evo in stock. 9 bucks for the set either way. You should use whatever you’re tuned for so pull one of yours out. Did you try the two things I mentioned yet? ---

> [@01AudiS4](#): > > In my experience this always works. Holding the pedal to the floor and all the way to the floor in a fuel injected car cuts fuel, and clears out the excess fuel while you still have spark. As long as your plugs aren’t too bad it should start, and if you pull one I’m sure it’s soaked in gas. Sounds very much like you are getting too much fuel. So do what Mike said and let us know how it worked. I’m about 99% sure this will work. not ALWAYS in your experience, unfortunately for me ☹ ---

> [@MPD47](#): > > 944’s dont have a cutoff or any microswitch on the clutch. So you’re full of shit. i had an alarm (NOT the factory Porsche alarm with the keyhole in the rear quarter) and tried to have a car starter put on it, but they told me it couldnt be done because there was no way to bypass the cluch start sensor or something like that which wold let it crank but not start. EDIT: this was before i worked at a car audio place, and everyone there said it could prob be done, but no1 there had ever doen one before so they wern’t sure.
