What i did/ any possible mistakes:
- changed lift solenoids
- removed intake manifold
- spilled a lot of coolant upon disconnecting throttle body
- removed fuel injectors
- one of the fuel injectors popped off and spilled some fuel
- snapped a lot of wiring clips
symptoms:
- starts for half a second and dies with a hissing sound
what i tried:
- checked vacuum lines, all seems to be good
- disconnected MAF sensor and tried starting the car, same result
misc:
- spilled some coolant on a lot of stuff, maybe caused an electrical problem? (doubt it)
- one of the electrical harnesses that connects to the throttle body was wet with coolant i think when i unplugged it(i don’t think it’s this because it was running fine before)
