    Seriously, just glad you got it fixed.
    You and me both...I didn't say it because I thought it was too obvious and already would have been checked, especially since someone else mentioned it.

    You were so close! What I was trying to get at was if you can duplicate it while stalling up the motor, it's easy to find. When you got it to do it in gear, I'm betting if you tried it in reverse it would NOT do it. What that tells you is it's either an open (being pulled apart) or shorting wire, and it tells you what side of the motor to look on also. A short will be on the side of the motor it's torquing towards, an open will be on the side it's pulling away from. Once you know that, take out a good strong flashlight and start looking at wiring, looking for pinch points or sharp edges that can cut into wiring harnesses.

    At least you got it fixed, next time use these hints and pay yourself the $100!

    to be honest, i had already mentioned this to my mechanic.. I could visualize something being wrong with the ignition harness, but he told me nothing was wrong with it and if there was something wrong the motor wouldn't start.. so i trusted his opinion, but seriously after a whole month of this crap and him not being able to find out something as simple as this, im moving to a different garage..

    I can't go back on my word, although since I did mention this in the earlier post that it might be this problem, it's a joint venture.. I guess I just opened ppls eyes to where the problem might be...

    That could be something in the wires because the hole electric is gown from the car . but as i told you before bader that garage they don't know nothing about mechanic . and i told you that i wont let them change my tires... you remember when you told me that they did degree wheel in your car with out putting a degree wheel tools thats why it looks that you have 110LSA in it . they just did advance on it i don't know how . am glad that you find the problem so you can have fun with the car right now .
