YEEEAAAH...Starting Problem Fixed

okay...some of you are going to say bory. i kept posting complaints about my starting issues and i was a step away just giving up. so this is the story...i wanted to treat my car to a rad. flush and refill and do the grille mod. well for some reason i couldn't stop thinking about what you guys said about the Fuse (starting sig). so i what the he!!. it takes two seconds to look for it. bam!!!! mystery solve. don't ask why i didn't begin there or what. i just couldn't believe a freaking fuse could cause this. well all it caused me was a ripped pair of shorts, soaking clothes from the rain and a lost radiator drain plug or **** (whatever its called). i ripped my shorts (by the leg not the A$$) trying to change the fuse. LOL. but i think the problem is fixed and i'm heading to Wesley Chapel Nissan now to get the plug. a nice 3.49 because of idiotism. i dropped the plug on some tall grass. i don't feel like finding it. oh well.

to everyone who helped...especially those who told me about the fuse. i WILL listen next time.

the fuse was a 7.5 starter sig(i believe) on a 96 max it was located in the interior fuse box. i believe it was 34 or 33. right below the 02 sensor fuse.

why would you edit the other name for a radiator drain plug. in advance auto parts tehy call it KCOC. read it backwards fellas. wierd. but thanks for all your help guys.

lol...my bad


my starting problem was this...every morning i' go 2 my car do a quick fluid level check and leakage check and jump in my car. i'd start it and the starter motor would wind...but car wouldn't rotate. after a few times it would (mostly with the help of the gas pedal.) my RPM would go up to 2 and then down to 2 coninuously as if i was hitting the gas really quick. then it would finally warm up a bit and everything was good to go. after about a month of this( not to mention a brand new starter) i've finally fixed the problem.

WTF... You got soaked by the rain, lost the drain plug for the radiator in the tall grass, and ripped your shorts by just flushing the radiator and replacing the fuse??

Did you change the fluid over your lawn??

WTF indeed!

indeed i did. i know...iknow. well...its started off like this. i wanted to flush my rad. it was my only day off and i wanted to take care of a few things. i started to flush the radiator over some grass (someone of the F&L page said that if you throw some water over it, it'll be okay) and i flush the system. while waiting for the rad to cool down...i started messing with the fuse box..check and see if any where blown.any how i was fukking with the radiator again and about five minutes into it. RAIN. it sucked so i tried to put the plug back in and it freaking fell into the grass. as i got up to run inside before i got soaked, my shorts ripped up and down my pant leg. i finally got a new damm plug and refilled it up and what not. it was overall a bad day
