basically, my 1990 240sx has 228000 miles and really needs a rebuild. problem is, i can't afford it right now. my car won't start half the time and when it does it barely gets going and sounds like it's missing out. I checked the injectors and it looks like #4's o ring needs replaced and i may need new seels, but possibly a new injector. anyone know how to make it run a few more days until i can get it fixed?

check the MAF too, as well as the coolant temp sensor.

sounds similar to a jumped time issue. check you ign timing and valve timing.
