My GCs motor might be dead?
Ok I think my motor is all buss LOL
Eversince I got my bike 3 months ago I never realy started the car and now it realy runs rough.
It bogs out and dies can't seem to keep the idel...
Maybe now I have to start saving up for a new motor or just try to figure out what's wrong with this one.
I drove my uncle from the valley where I live to Farrington High School the bam... It started to bog then dies out
Anyone know what's happenin?

I know I should try a tune up.
But if I do, do a swap then I might buy my friends 04 STi motor only and build it up on the side.
Sooo here's a question, how do u put fresh fuel when I have half tank?

siphon it out or there might be a drain plug on the bottom of tank. or you can just put some 92 in and run it till it is gone then fill up again.

oh FYI next time you decide to store your car for a long period of time fill it full of gas and buy that stuff (cant remember the name) that keeps your gas fresh. if you leave your gas tank half empty the tank will build up condensation and the water will mix with your gas.

i doubt it's your gas.
today's fuels have additives and ****.
You can let a car sit for a year and it shouldn't cause much of a problem.
If you want proof, I have a volvo s40 that I havnt started in over 5 months. I bet I can put a battery in it and it will start and run just fine.
My 04 wrx sat ungaraged for 9 months and ran just fine after.
Is your check engine light on?
Read the codes.

Dirty MAF, IACV or TB, clogged EGR, dirty injectors, clogged fuel filter, plugs?? These are were I'd start if I had those problems. Possibly a vacuum leak too if idle is rough and dies. Try checking your vacuum lines if any are faulty. Save it before you really need to swap it out.
