Hey whats up guys im a newbie here from Oklahoma i just bought a 90 240. This is my first 240 got out of the Honda scene and im loving every minute of it lol.

So here is my question when i first bought the car it would start up every time. And now that i killed the car and reversed lol i know laugh havent driven a stick in forever but anyways. I had to jump start it to get it going and now i have to do it everytime i get in the car to go anywhere.

So my question is would u guys happen to know why i cant start my car with out jump starting it??

And one more question i have to pump my clutch every time i get in it in the morning. Question is why do i have to keep pumping it every time i get in??

Sorry so long but it really help out alot plus i dont want to keep jump starting it and cause more damage on!!!

One that doesn't start! haha

But yeah, try checking for any loose wires, alternator, etc...

I was having a starting problem too recently, but it was a different problem.

Have you ever noticed the search feature is garbage? Not just this site, but all of them. I can search for something that I know exists....... for example one of my own threads. I can enter the title of the thread word for word, and it may not come up in a search. So I personally don't trust the search feature for anything.

Search: "Broadfield's new interior mods"

You will get no results, even though it is a current thread

In that case I would search Broadfield and I'm sure it would come up. You arent gonna be able to put the title in word for word, search more of a general description and then you have to look through what comes back.

i240 and Black. If you have issues with each other, take it up privately. I don't want to see it on the boards again.

one that doesn't start very funny smart a** lol just kidding. Yeah still haven't figure out the problem tried the things you guys said and nothing im thinking its the starter going to take to one of mechanic buddies here and see what he say.

But for slidewayz1 i have a 90 model hatchback i live in Edmond what part of oklahoma? And is there any meets or something around here???
