Started my car today for the first time...
 
Okay, today was the moment of truth. I got all the necessities out of the way (but still need to weld my muffler and cat together) and decided to start my car. At first, it hesitated to start. Then, I turned the key again, and BAM! heard a big bang and I got scared like someone shot at me with a 357 mag or something. What the f**k just happened? Does anybody know? Is it safe for me to start the car again or was that backfire? Can anybody help me? I hope I didn't damage my frickin' motor...

Aww man, you just winked at me again, dude. I don't swing like that, bro. Hahahaha

But anyways, do I have to wait before I start it again or what? I don't wanna have to start my racing summer with a BANG if you know what I mean....

just got out and fire it up again. and if it doesnt fire, kick your hood like your wife just divorced you. it'll smarten up. :)

Nah, I can't do that. My wife loves me very much and she would get really pissed if I kick her in the butt...

Oh wait, you were talking about the hood...

How do I fix that firing order? It's an 91 Integra LS motor...

did you curse at it while tryin to start it? is there fuel in the lines, I bet it was just a scare. go back out there and keep crankin that bitch! if somethings wrong, it will let you know after it runs for a few seconds. you did put oil back in it...


wait, you are serious? you dont know the firing order...
check your helms.

Re:Started my car today for the first time...
 
I did check the helms, and according to it, the car should be starting with no probs. Yes I did curse at it after I started it. Yes there was more than enough fuel to start.

check your firing order, make sure all your plugs are tight,

if you heard a bang, you must be getting fuel and spark...

humm....timing??

I'm not exactly sure on what the problem with your car is, but I just wanted to congratulate you on finishing it. Haven't you been workin' on it for almost a year? I remember wanted ads from you in the classifieds since ages ago for LS parts in CRX. ;D

Re:Started my car today for the first time...
 
Thanks, I have been working on it for one and a half years actually. It took me too long cause of money issues. My only problem now is the exhaust. I have the cat and muffler, but I still need dough to have the custom piping done...

i bet its timing. thy dont backfire without it being off in timing..set everything to TDC and check the t-belt and try it again, shee start if everything is on.

PinoyB18A 07-22-2004 10:32 AM

Re:Started my car today for the first time...
 
Okay, I set everything TDC, timing belt's tight, firing order is set, battery's dead...F**K! I guess I left the battery hooked up and it was already getting old...
