Once again I am having a little issue with my 240 it is an S13 (KA24DE) I have searched but I really want some advice possibly pertaining to my exact problem.
So here it goes....
First the car would just randomly shut off at a stoplight maybe once a month if that..when it shut off it would crank but no turnover or starting then 5-10 minutes later bingo it would go fine. So one day I go to get in the car for work and it wouldn't start up at all.
I left the car for a day or so got in and it started right up, I drove it around the block shut if off and tried to start again and no dice. So, I checked out the usual things and noticed a crack in my fuel line (rubber one) going into the filter so I replaced both in and out line and Filter. Got in the car and it started right up so I drove it around the block just fine althought it seemed to almost die down at each stop sign and I feathered the gas to keep it going then got it going just fine again. So I drove home parked it, turned it off and went to start and it started but was sputtering and I had to give it gas and feather the pedal to get it going then once again once it started I let it idle and it sat perfect at idle. Turned off, then turned on and no start....turned off then turned on with a hesitant start. Basically it seems to want to start every 1 in 4 or 5 tries. Any ideas guys?
