So it won't start after I replaced the terminals. Everything was working until I turned the key and it all died. Any ideas. No radio no lights no nothing.

Removed a car alarm/siren
And removed..
And while removing my mud flaps, I was lead to quite a surprise... here is my surprise after a couple paints of rust pevent primer and hammer paint:
This thing fell out... very odd.
Anyways....the paint primmer is a temporary, until I get some fiber glass and the hick auto body repair for holes great stuff.

It is a pressure line... spray a little at a time so it doesn't kill it. spray a little in the gas tank. i spray 1/3 in each of the 3 spots. at the very end I spray the last bit in the brake booster so it stalls the motor out. let it sit 15-20 mins and start it back up. It will be rough starting for the first min or so then it will start and smoke a parking lot out. After it stops smoking tunr it off and do an oil change because the oil will have a lot of the build up in oil when you drain it out.
Even the first time I ever seafoamed it I stalled it like 7 times and it never hurt anything .
hopes this helps. I'm seafoaming mine to tomorrow morning to pass emissions lol.

Yesterday I brought home an 89 XJ limited that I paid $300 and didn't know what was exactly wrong with it. Today I replaced the CPS and it fired up. Seller must have forgot to tell me the right front brake line was broke! Oh well it was only $300
