Ignition system finally fixed! (knocking on wood)
Ive been gone along time now and alot has happened with the car but through all the frustration its running again.
First the opti died and that was replaced. I resealed the intake manifold to stop the oil leak, and the car didnt run. The o2 sensors were replaced and the car ran for like 2 weeks and then died again. So then the coil was replaced, and it ran again but died everytime it was humid or raining out! I tracked it down the the coil wire and replaced it, and the car was running perfectly so i took it for a drive and got about a half mile down the street and the car just died at about 40 mph. This is where i pretty much gave up and called AAA. while i was waiting the hour for the truck to come i decided to start looking for the problem under the hood and taking things apart on the side of the road. long story short the coil wire had popped off for some reason when i began driving (i know i had snapped it in) so i burned my had on the water pump plugging it in again and the car ran fine. idk why it came out in the first place but now the car has been running perfectly.
But because i have a theory that my car will just never be happy being fixed the day i got it all running again it blew the fuse for the foglights lol.
And on top of all of this some drunk kid on my campus decided to key like 25 cars in one night mine included. He was never caught and the school wont take responsibility at all which is pretty sweet. He keyed the hood the driver side bumper to bumper and two spots on the passenger side.
