dammit....took my lady to starbucks...when she came out with coffee I tried to start her up. Right when i turned her on BANG (pretty damn loud) from the engine compartment and a puff of smoke from there too. I did not try to re fire her and to make matters worse I can't find a tow to my house today that can accomodate a lowered car.
I don't know if I should try to re fire her or not. I've had the car for 200 miles and in that time I've replaced the air filter, fuel pump, fuel filter, and plugs. She obviously has fresh oil and filter as well. Just took it to emissions yesterday and passed with flying colors.
I've come across on here an engine shooting a plug.....I did a very quick visual inspection under the hood before taking a cab home but didn't see anything out of the ordinary. Only other thing i can mention is I had a tick that seemed to start about 75 miles ago.
waiting for some responses.....I'd like to take another car back to her to see if we can get her up and going....
any suggestions?? thanks
