So i know nothing about 240s so i need help. the other day i drove to a store and when i came out to my s13 i went to go start it and nothing. all the lights work it sounded like it wanted to start but maybe no spark but im not sure. i open the hood and this is what i find, hoses that were not connected to anything and a wire with that yellow end and i have no idea where they go! one hose is connected but thats not were it goes i just put it there because if its not connected the car sounds like its going to die. Need lots of help!! please and thank you

Wait..what the hell? How did you ever be able to drive? Did someone broke into your car?

1st picture, hard to tell, but may be connected either to evap system or cruise control unit.

On the 3rd picture, it looks like the brake booster hose, but it's supposed to be connected to something.

Is this a SOHC DOHC ? Your hard lines look cut to your brake master

Looks like you have multiple vacuum leaks. First is a vacuum hose to maybe the throttle body? Second needs to be plumbed into your header. And the other two don't seem to make much sense. How did the car even hold idle?

Well first things first, it sounds like your starter is in its way out or the relay for the starter is taking a crap on you.

Oh the 3rd picture is for the stock o2 sensor. That's what that plug is for.

The 3rd picture looks to be some sort of coolant bypass. I'm thinking for the throttle body. Plug off those open hoses and see how it idles then.

Is that orange hose in the third pic hooked up to your brake booster? If not then it needs to be. All that other shit, follow it to where it goes and come back with some answers.

some one wanted you dead, but failed at life.
