need help with my s13

[sanokillzone]

hey whats up I'm having problems with my 240 here is a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... VyLsN0dV1I

[sanokillzone]

other problems i am aware of are a broken engine mount and a f*cked up vacuum tube somewhere between the engine and firewall

Have you checked your distributor timing? It looks to me like its wayyy off.
Also that vacuum leak can cause problems with the car starting sometimes. I'd check those two things before trying anything else.

Thank you for uploading a video, makes it much easier to help with.

I would check your timing.
Change your fuel filter wouldn't hurt.
Vacuum leak could also be the problem
Have you checked the spark plugs?

Check the injectors,fuel pump,and pressure if the vacuum doesent fix it

I'm just gonna take my car to a shop and have it done by pro's

[nofatchicks0073]

wait!!!!!!!!! dont take it to a shop change your broken vacuum line first if i had to bet i would put money on your broken line just change it and if nothing else it will atleast be cheaper on you when you take it to a shop one less thing they have to mess with right most people dont realize how imortant it is one busted line that takes two minutes to change will definatly keep your car from running well and if its the right one it wont let it start at all let us know what happens when you fix that problem it would suck if you took it to a shop and they told you it was a bad flux capacitor just so they can charge you more money it happens sometimes

[s13eddie]

Vacuum lines, fuel line, fuel sender, MAF sensor, or TPS. Check all those things, i've had similar problems...

[sanokillzone]

well i havent taken it to a shop but I have no idea which vacuum tube it is. I think I need to do that smoke test to find out which tube it is. I heard of a dif way of testing using some brake cleaner and spraying tubes to listen for the engine to rev up. (btw if I sound like an idiot its because really, I have no idea what to do )

Just replace the old lines, vacuum line is very cheap. Then set the TPS, clean the IAC and go from there. Make sure to check basic things too like the plug gap, make sure the plug wires are on the write plugs. Set the Dizzy timing.
