I've searched a few hours and couldn't really get the answer I needed
I just got a 91 X 4x4 with 165k and it started fine for a couple weeks then it wouldn't start with the key I had to jump the sylenoid posts ,I started wiggling wires and fuses to see if anything was lose and it started with the key ,that lasted a couple days know it won't start with the key again ,i have to jump the sylenoid did all the wire wiggling but didn't work this time. Anyone have the same problem or is there a starter relay somewhere?
second problem is it had a miss when I got it thought it would be the plugs so I changed them,then the wires,cleaned the mas as per this forum but still has a rough idle until about 1800 rpm then smoothes out ,real strong (rich) exhaust smell and occasoinal puff of white smoke and about 10 mpg
i haven't been thru everything yet as I was hoping to get some help or advice first Any help will be greatly appreciated
