After 3 years and hundreds of dollars trying to figure out what was wrong with my ride, its finally running. I bought an ECU from a member and installed it. I turned the key over and nothing. I asked friends what could be the problem and their suggestions didn't work. Just the other day I was messing around with the starter, filed the positive battery post after connecting the positive wires wrong on the starter and seeing spark from the post and then turned the key over. To my surprise the car started. I told my parents I was now an accidental mechanic. I have asked mechanics and people with years of experience what could be wrong and all they could say was, sell your car.
I don't know what I did, maybe reset a relay from hooking the starter up wrong after causing the positive battery post to spark or maybe the post just needed to filed.

My name is Jesse from South Dakota and I own a 4g61t hatchback. I will be posting some pics of my ride soon. Its still stock, hoping to buy rims for it and finding a body kit for it. I was looking at the pic threads and saw a member with a 98 Impresa front bumper on his Mirage and was thinking of doing that to my ride.

yes!!! must see pics when your ready thanks turboshawn

Now, that's a cause for a celebration!!

Everybody and their mother keeps telling me to sell mine, too. I don't have the heart to do that.

You've been here for over 5 years and only have 36 posts? That's embarassing! lol Sounds like my junk, I still have no idea why it starts when it wouldn't before.
