nice, glad you got it fixed
My car finally runs!
Well, After finding a few problems, a few vac leaks, and figuring out my big oil leak is a stripped oil pan bolt, She Runs! It took me till aout 1:30ish in the morning to get her purring like a kitten, but its great now. I cant wait till later when i go get her temp tagged! Iv'e still got to Drain and change the diff/transfer case fluids, trans fluids, and bleed/refill brake and clutch, but she is pretty good for a car thats been sitting for 3-4 years.

Well, it was running!
It still does run, but i've found the oil leak to be the front main seal or the oil pump seal, and i have a boost leak somewhere i think. The car is a 1991 Eagle Talon TSi AWD, and like any DSM its having its issues lol. If anyone happens to be bored, and has a boost leak tester, hit me up. I'll throw you a few bones for gas or something. I'd just like to find this leak and i cant make it to my buddys house, the car wont go over 3K RPM.

Nice...hopefully you won't be crank walking anytime soon 
Nah its got a 6 bolt, no pissed off crank walking away on me! Just all the other problems DSM's have! lol. Other than needing a new oil pump/front case, she is all good. i got her into 1, 2, and 3 before i parked her for more work, and she shifts like butter. I later found i left a visable trail of oil the ENTIRE way around the block on my test drive. you can walk it like a path, so i am glad i stopped when i did. Hopefully i'll have it fixed for the last time (for a bit) this week so i can make it to the meets. I'd like to get to know ya'll and check out your rides.
Haha.
I wouldn't trust a DSM motor with my life.
First day I bought my Conquest she threw a rod on me.
Worst day of my life.
