ok i may be a bit annoying but now i cant get the car to start earlier i got it to finally start everything was fine all day till i went to the gas station i fill savanna up and it wont start >.< its parked behind the gas stationg atm :'( any odd reason it wont start back up? it would knock up when i crank it for like 3 sec but it wont start any ideas?
P.S. i been just cruiseing all day temp seems to be on the half point but oil pressure goes up real high thats jsut cause it needs an oil change right?

Ok, try this:
- Take the key out of ignition
- Pull out the 40A EGI fuse from the small fuse box mounted on the driver's side suspension well in the engine bay.
- Turn the key to ingnition and crank the engine over for ~30-40 seconds.
- Put the 40A EGI fuse back in to its original position in the fuse box
- Try starting the car as per normal.
That's the general procedure for de-flooding.
I've just replied to your other post that you're having problems with coolant moving into the overflow & not coming back... Flooding & hard-to-start problems are also a tell-tale sign of a blown coolant seal.
This might also be a good time to replace your spark plugs (easy job & can be done in the gas station car park - just make sure you put the right leads back onto the right plugs!). This should help if you have flooding problems.
Once again, I had flooding issues when I had a blown coolant seal.
Hope this helps.
