Re: starting problem

Inspect the fuse block. If the wire connectors have slipped back and 
are not engaging the fuses it may look like the fuse is fully inserted 
but it doesn't touch the connector.

removing some non-standard wiring from the fuse block that a previous

and 17. Afterwards, my car ran fine but I had lost all systems the 
fuse 11 powered. I inspected the socket and saw that the add-in jumper 
had expanded the socket, so the fuse alone wasn't able to make a 
connection. I plugged the jumper back in (sealing off the other end of 
the jumper wire so the power couldn't go anywhere) and now the car 
won't start. She'll turn over, the fuel pump engages when I try to 
start it, and all the fuses are good. I've loosened a fuel line going 
to an injector just a little and saw gas coming out when it was 
starting. I've check to see if the spark plugs are getting spark, 
which they are.
