So my z32 "z30 Boo Boo" Stop working on me yesterday when I was coming back from the dmv after paying over 200 dollars and fees go figure huh? So when I was coming home the car started to bog and start jerking seem like if I was in high Gear it wouldn't bog or jerk as much but still did so I put my hazards on as soon as I did. The car died on me kind of like a stall. Try to start it up no go funny how I was like 6 mins away from my house, anyways cost me 50 bucks to tow home let me remind you im a poor 17 year old broke black kid that goes to college like an hour away so no car means no school so I was tripping out but Guess I can ride the train to school until my z32 up in running. But Today early in the morning I tried to start her up and cranked over but that's because I kept giving it gas then eventually it just died on me now its just doing this "Video of whats actually hapenning" --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7qEKuQhjP8 Now I have a little fasfa money that can help me fix it but the thing is I don't know if its a big problem or little. If little I can fix it my self due to the fact I know my stuff about cars some what I was in advance auto tech in High school and had a lot of experience because my s13 kept s*** on me and my other z32 but if its a big problem then well Im pretty much :facepalm: so if you guys can guess at what it is I can start right there and fix what ever I can but if you know its beyond what a 17 year old kid can do let me know in advance thanks. - Sincerely Black poor kid :P " P.s My guess is low compression and there goes a whole new engine I would need , or fuel ejectors or spark plugs Like I said I only got one year of experience so Im just guessing off what I know " Thanks again Forgive my Grammar we are not in Language arts class lol
