when it fixed itself it blew my turn signal fuse, which also blew my tach and temp gauge and fuel gauge.

so i replaced the fuse and now the car runs and i have all my electrical working, but i dont think the problem is totally solved, im scared that there is still a bad connection somewhere. i checked the grounds and made sure they were all good connections, and it may have helped but i dont think that was the main problem.

for some reason i think it has to do with my tach signal, maybe a crossed wire or something.

dammit, so hard to fix a problem when its not broken.
