Re: Stored Ty doesn't startup
UPDATE: Last night my friend and I put the new pump in and IT STARTED UP PERFECT. The gas gauge cracked all the way and leveled to 1/4 tank 5-6min later. No squealing turbo or anything, just rough idle for like 5 seconds then smooth as silk. My buddy said its like a time capsule, the paint is better than showroom, the leather is excellent, the plastics in the interior are super juicy clean, the engine is clean as hell, smooth, and deep.
I drove it to my house with my buddy covering my ass w/ my Mustang since the Ty has a 98 reg. sticker.
A couple of things. When I stop and go the gas level acted funky again (try’s point to the sky when the gas is sloshing). I think the float was kind of seized on its arm. It felt a bit tight, but then again I don’t know if it’s supposed to be loose or what. I'll update if that gets fixed. Also the brake lights don't work, but I know how to fix that. I put a switch under the dash to disable the brake lights (don't ask if you don't know why ). I must have pulled it when I was messing around under there. Last thing, when I go uphill or get into high boost it will ping. Some good gas should take care of that, if not I have a load of extra plugs since the hoochie at Pepboys gave me the UPS box of sparkplugs instead of the 6 I ordered PHAHAHahah! Pepboys deserves it. I'm going to put some octane boost and Redline fuel cleaner into that plastic tank and fill'er up w/ 92, shake a bit and pour . Other than that stuff the car is AMAZING!
Thanks to all for the help and tips!!! I'll update more on how things go.
