No it is pretty straight forward.

U can't just replace the lock and key, it must be the right resistance value, did u do this? do u have the old switch?

Check this procedure to check fuel pressure about this device, first take the injector cover off the top of the engine using a ratchet and socket...

1.- find the schrader valve on the fuel rail. This is the fuel tube that holds the fuel injectors. You might need to unscrew a plastic cap off the valve. You will recognize the valve because it is similar to the air valve on (some models)
2.- Wrap a shop rag around the valve to prevent fuel spilling over the engine or yourself when connecting the fuel pressure gauge.
3.- conect a fuel pressure gauge to the Schrader valve.
4.- Insert the gauge bleed hose into a 16-oz. or larger container to catch the fuel during this test.
5,- turn on the ignition without starting the engine.
6.- open the bleed hose valve on the gauge to bleed the air from the fuel system.
7.. Connect a scan tool into the assembly line diagnostic link electrical connector located under the dashboard on the driver's side (I'm assuming this location)
8.- Activate the fuel pump using the scan tool following the tool's instruction manual.
9.- close the gauge's bleed hose valve as soon as fuel begins to bleed into the container without air bubbles.
10.- read the gauge. Fuel pressure should be between 60 and 66 psi.

FInally, turn off the ignition and disconnect the scan tool and fuel pressure gauge.

Also, its possible that this information helpfull: fuel_pressure.html

Hope helps.

Take out one of the battery terminal, That reset the computerof the car.

There really isn't an easy way to change the fuel pump. The gas tank has to be removed. Draining the gas out of the tank will help in reinstalling the tank. A floor jacket is helpful.

that is the weep hole when the pump diaphram goes bad it leaks there you need a pump

I hope helps (remember to rate this answer).

how many cylinders

Need to find a garage that has a lift. Clean off the bottom of the engine and observe where the oil spurts out when started.

Good luck on diagnosing this problem.

INSTALLING AIR SHOCKS ON THE FRONT is not a safe thing to do will make car extremely stiff and unstable on bumpy roads. and i dont think they even make a set for the front end

the timing is off

What you are describing sounds like the alternator is starting to fail. Most part stores don't charge to check the battery and alternators now so you may want to have it checked out.

Hi!
Follow the instructions on the Tip I posted at http://www.fixya.com/cars/r4598641-reinstall_distributor_crankshaft_moved

hi, it may be the transmission oil, transmission oil LEVEL or and transmission filter.
first check transmission level by starting the engine (ticking over) go through ALL GEARS and check level. this level will (drop from standing idle). NOT ENOUGH FLUID
if the FILTER is partially blocked then not enough fluid reaching the chambers. NOT ENOUGH FLUID.
the fluid may be full of deposits. transmission fluid needs REPLACING and or FILTER.
also check if leaking transmission fluid.
check if lever out of range (worn, can't get to position before end of gear lever travel).
the brake bands may be WORN, or needs adjusting
the KICK-DOWN seams to work. check link-ergs for wear and movement.
the speedo seams to have a BAD CONNECTION (closed circuit connected then open circuit). loose connector. gerry

if you can start the car,drive the car for as long as it doesnt overheat.to dry out the engine bay.then pray it runs okay after.otherwise it could cost.....the cooling fan could just be shorted out but check your fusebox,if not blown,then let it dry.if you cannot start the car a dry garage might take longer......
what you have done,basically, is to immerse the engine electrics in water,not a good idea.......

Join army go to Afganistan

Do your asterisks **** indicate shaking ?
Be sure motor mounts are OK....engine tilt on the turn may pull or push some wiring connector causing a circuit disconnection.
Don't forget...fuel filter blockage or fuel pump losing efficiency.
I suggest ....don't drive until this is resolved. A shutdown in high traffic could be fatal !

Could be due for a tune up. Spark Plugs, plug wires, fuel and air filter, fuel injectors cleaned etc.

check the wires under the engine ,they could have pulled off the sensor
