You need to know how to work on a car if you own a 1987 vehicle.





More then likely you have a leaky injector. At first the injector only leaked enough to cause the car to miss and shake. Now one of the cylinders has so much fuel in it and the spark plugs are covered in fuel that it will not start.





Check your plugs. Dry them off. Get it running. Check each cylinder by unplugging the wire. When the car runs the same with a cylinder unhooked then you know you have found the bad one. Replace the injector and o-rings.





....or take it somewhere.

Is porsche 944 a gray market car & what is a gray market car " do they have a us version"?

"srry for a long question"
Is porsche 944 a gray market car %26amp; what is a gray market car " do they have a us version"?
Where in the world are you?





If it is US then the 944 is 100% legal. I know a few people with them.

prior to about 1984 a lot of European cars came to this country and weren't set up for our strict emission requirements. those cars we called gray market cars and there are still a few imported in today. gray market means they had to be retrofited to fit our laws. your car may fit into this catergory.
Reply:If you live in the U.S., you should have seen many of them by now.





They were sold in the U.S. for over 5 years until they went out of production.





I see one every couple of months driving around.





You can buy them anywhere. They now cost around $5000-7000 on autorader.com and vehix.com and cars.com
Reply:Most Porsche cars, including the 944, have been produced in two major variations... US, and RoW (Rest Of the World). The US cars have heavier bumpers, are generally set to higher ride heights, and usually have engines that produce a little less power (generally due to emissions requirements). And due to crash testing requirements, some of the most desirable Porsche models were never made in US trim by the factory (964 RS, Original GT3, 959, etc).





A grey market car is one that was imported from elsewhere in the world, and then brought up to US standards. If done properly, these can be very desirable cars as they often have options and additional performance compared to US versions... but that is a VERY big IF as most that were imported were done by people looking to make a quick buck. A car that was not brought up to standards correctly will at best be a major and costly headache, and at worst, will have major safety issues.





However, the 944 was most definitely produced in a US version. If you are in the United States, pretty much all 944s you will find will be US versions... and the few grey market cars will also be road legal in the US. If you are in another country, you will only have the RoW version, but this would be the version that would be legal in that country.

My 1992 Accord won't start in hot weather.Anything over 80 even If I leave the windows down.?

I have to crank it about 6-10 times before it starts.


In the winter its fine.


No check eng codes.
My 1992 Accord won't start in hot weather.Anything over 80 even If I leave the windows down.?
its very common for the main relay that controls the fuel pump and ignition on that car to fail in hot weather. the main relay is located up under the driver's side of the instrument panel. it gets a lot of heat from the sunlight coming through the windshield and heating the dash panel. that causes the circuit board in the relay to expand and break contact. when that happens the relay goes open circuit and the fuel pump won't run or you'll lose spark to the spark plugs. (the main relay is actually two relays in one and depending on where the circuit board for the relay cracks you'll lose one or the other)





there is almost a 100% failure rate on the original relays. if you've never replaced it, then I think you'll find the main relay to be the problem. the relays run about $45 at a honda dealer; you can probably replace it yourself if you're comfortable working under the dash. otherwise, add $ for installation.





hope that helps

Reply:Led Zepplin No question about it.


Zepplin was far more talented musicly. Cooper's cool and all. He has some good songs. Zepplin has loads of great music. I find it hard to imagine anyone would choose Cooper over Zepplin. Not a majority anyway.
Reply:Alice Cooper's Awesome but nothing beats Zeppelin.

There is a thing called a "sending unit" inside the fuel tank. Replace it.
