    In need of assistance

    So since 2013 my 1990 laser has been dead. Now it has a new engine, but the mechanic most likely f***ed up on the vacuum line system. It idles horribly, and when given throttle stock boost gauge maxes out. Aftermarket stays at 0.

    Resolved A mechanic is confusing me

    He said that top dead center piston has two different points. f***ing help. My understanding is that if the first piston is at the tdc and it's timing mark is correct, along with the cam gears. The first rotation is induction of air and fuel.

    Resolved 90 laser wont start

    I k ow I shouldn't post here, but all my DSM friends have no clue what's wrong. She cranks beautifully(sounds better than she ever has) I'm quite certain there's fuel being sprayed into the block(checked with q-tip) and there's no spark. I bought a new coil pack and no difference. I was told...

    Resolved slightly stupid but possibly has a obvious answer. (engine knock)
