washed my engine and now it wont start, HELP!
The guys at club240 wernt being to nice about this so maybe you guys can help me out.
OK heres the deal, I decided after having 180k miles on 91 240sx the engine bay and the engine where about due for a cleaning so I go to walmart and purchase some of this degreeser in a pruple bottle. I mix it up real good and start appyling it all over the engine bay. I thought that the pistons where probably pretty dirty with carbon on them(from all the hard driving and getting sideways of course) so I put a little in there let it sit a a half hour then put the spark plugs back on hose down the engine bay after scrubbing alot it looks pretty decent. A few minutes later I try to start it and the starter sounds really wierd and it cranks a few times and just stops. Now am I starting to think its the battery, alternator, or starter, I know its one of those 3, what do you guys think?
