Whats up peoples in stangnet? So i went to pick up my girlfriend from class yesterday. I was 10 minutes early so i parked my car under the shade, and when 10 minutes was up i tried to start my car but it would not start. It would crank up but then it would die... what was weird, was when i take out my key, my alarm would turn on and i would hear a ticking sound and some lights would flick on and off...so i tried to start my car about 10 times, and still the same result. I even had someone to try and jump start it, same result. So i called the towing place to to my car to my house, which was about 6 miles away, and had to pay 65 dollars. So i dunno what happened, but a couple of hours later, i tried to start my car again just for the heck of it...and what do you know it started!!!! When i first started it, it sounded weird. I cant explain the sound, but it never sounded like that.. so i turned of the ignition and started it again, it started to sound like nothing is wrong... So i did it a few more times, and revving the engine...and everything sounds find...ANYONE knows what the heck is going on to my car???

sounds like your PATS (passive anti-theft) may be out. If you use your tilt steering a lot, it will rub and eventually break the wires inside the steering column. Apparently that's a bad problem with the 98's. I just had mine bypassed with the chip, god a good enough security system with the 12 gauge
