    Default LS problem

    i got a 91 DA LS.
    the car was running perfect before hand.
    i swaped out the header, i havent been able to get the O2 sensor out to put in the new one.

    but for some reason the car wont fire up anymore.
    it turns over but wont "turn on"
    it had new plugs, and dizzy.

    any advice would help.

    have you tried putting the original header back on to eliminate that as a possibility?

    i agree look around at all the connections and if everything checks out put the o23 sensor back in and see if that helps but if not then let us know with more symptoms

    my car would turn over and over but never start
    all i had to do was take the gas cap off and let the pressure out
    my friend said it was called vapor-lock or something
    its worth a try

    that might actually be,
    because the car's gas cap hasn't opened in like almost a year.
