In Reply to: HELP! HELP! 320i will not start! posted by Alan on February 16, 2000 at 23:49:36:
: As I drove home in my 79 today, I noticed some surging. uh oh, vaccuum leak, I thought, I'll have to look at that when I get home. Then the car stopped revving at 3 grand, and no matter how hard I pushed down on the pedal, nothing would happen, or it would lurch and stop. When I got home, I proceeded to check all vaccuum lines. Everything seemed ok, so I went to start the car again, and it wouldn't start. I decided that now would be a good time to get the Haynes manual and hook up all the hoses the right way. They weren't. After doing this, the car will kick off, but will die within seconds. It's frustrating, to say the least. My question is, with all the vaccuum lines correctly in place, and this symptomology, where do I go from here? I'm truly lost. Any advicce/suggestions would be GREATLY apprectiated. TIA everyone
