Ok heres the deal. The lady drives a 96 saturn SL1 1.9 DOHC AUTO. About a month ago the car started acting funny, real harsh starts (when it did start). Now we got to the point where the car would start only if it was let to sit for a couple of hours (like mornings) but if you went for a drive and turned it off. No dice. Even when it does start it chug chug chugs... building from like 200rpm and requiring a full foot of throttle. We take the car to a shop cause i dont know **** about saturns they keep it for a week checking this and that, then tell us its leaking fuel injectors and when the car shuts off it leaks a bit on top of the pistons preventing a good start. Sounds reasonable enough, thank you very much, get the car back from them i order the injectors, and install them yesterday. Now car wont turn over at all. I got it to start for a split second an it dies once again. WTF. Maybe its cause of fouled plugs from the injectors, so i go get new plugs throw em.. still nothing. Im outa ideas, could it be a bad fuel pressure regulator? If you look at one of the pics the fpr looks to be leaking gas onto the fuel rail abit... hmm any ideas will do i gotta get this piece running; i cant stand driving her to work every morning sorry for the life story here are some pics : (remember these plugs were replaced AT THE SHOP before i got the car back and have maybe a 100 miles on them, i pulled them after replacing the injectors)
