Yeah, changed my fuel filter last night and started her up, and revved up to make sure no leak, and damn, revved up quick as ****. My old one must have been really bad, although I guess they get like that after 120,000+ miles. Now I can notice a big difference with the flywheel. I've had the damn filter for about 5 months and never got around to it, glad I did cause much better now.

Although car wouldn't start today, pissed me off completely. Already having a bad day cause I got a ticket on the way to school in the morning (50/35), then some other ****t, then the damn car wouldn't start. Oh, I was ready to go off...

Anyways, it won't turnover or anything (battery is fine) so I'm thinking ignition switch. Maybe clutch safety switch? I would think if the starter went it would be some indication before hand.

Yup, just replaced it with the cheap Fram one... I'm not buying a 'performance' fuel filter, the idea just sounds dumb to me... Especially with all those high power mods I have.
