So I was testing my new ss clutch line and did the drag test to see if it drags. It was dragging a lot, so I decided to head home. Upon arriving I did the test again and then suddenly the car turned off by itself. Now it doesn't want to start LOL...I smelled A LOT of gas, I mean A LOT.

I do want to say though, the ss clutch line works great! Especially with the restrictor off, nice firm pedal. Can't believe this shit happens :banghead:
 
Sounds like you still have fuel. Next is to check for spark.

I was going to test fuel by loosening the fuel filter line but I can't get it to budge -.- to see if I have pressure. I'm going to test spark, doubt its fuel though.

UPDATE: Tested for spark, there is none. Changed coils and still a no go. Hmm....

UPDATE2:Tested fuel pressure and fuel pump and they work fine. Changed ecu's and still a no go.
So it's not fuel, ecu or the spark plugs and wires because they are new, just not getting any juice. Which sensor cuts
ignition if its messed up?
