Hey guys its me again. s13 with a t25 setup. Last night while i was driving i crossed an intersection and the road on the other side was extremely bumpy going about 30 mph. btw i'm running on megan streets on the softest level. anyway while crossing the bumpy section my car just decided to die so i had to roll to a stop. After stopping i tried to start it back up but all it would do was crank and not fire up. heres a list of things i've already checked:-battery-plugs where not wet-fuel pump is priming-intercooler piping is all connected and good-MAF is plugged and good (blow through setup)-sparkplug wires all connected and coil wire good-dizzy cap and rotor good-no leaks

lastly-i used a test light for the drive side foot panel fuses and all of them lit up except the fuse on slot 12 - "10 amp" fuse(second to the last on the right side labeled "st signal")

my question is what is the fuse for and could that be why my car won't fire up?

Well replace that fuse and find out. If your plugs wernt wet then your engines prly not getting fuel. Run the self diagnostic on your ECU and let us know whats up.

lol that would have been funny, but unfortunately that was the first thing i checked and nothing was wrong. i knew i didn't bottom out. However i did find out the problem and one of the coil harness was half way off and the other one was completely off, so when i plugged both back in it started right up. Thanks!
