'91 100q 5 injectors replaced - now car wont start

[Paul Caouette]

Hang in there. At one point All of us were at the same point in our Audieducation. Think of it positively. You can't make it any worse than it already is.....dead.

I use that mindset often when I tackle a repair for something that is broken. Sometimes (more often than I ever imagined) I find nothing, clean and reassemble, and the damned things works.... Mind you minus a few Items still left on the table which I have no idea about.
