wanted to die. Just short of work at a stop sign it died on me. So only =
about 1/4 mile walk on this wonderful 23 degree cloudy Colorado morning. =
So after I got her off to the side of the road I started a little diag. =
So basically if I let it sit with the key on for about 30sec and try to =
turn it over it will jump to life for a sec and die. If I immediately =
try to crank again it will just spin. let it sit with the key on it will =
run for a sec., more like it just barely runs. I has been running fine. =
Although I have noticed this week that some times when  pushing in the =
clutch at a light it would idle low 400 and then get back up to normal =
idle after a sec. So what should I be looking for here. Dead fuel =
pump??? I'm at a total loss! Please some one help. I did grab the hoses =
to see if they were blown out but didn't think to look at the =
intercooler. Also the person that I bought the car from has upgraded the =
Chip and turbo spring to give about 1.8-1.9 under high boost conditions.
Thanks anyone that can help.
And does anyone know of any good mechs in Fort Collins, CO?
