Duplicated question.

That's usually a sign of a bad ground somewhere.

That's an indication of the clutch being worn out.

if you just got fuel .it could have water in it.gas floats so water falls to bottom of the tank over night fuel pump sucks it up. check fuel filter for water in it

Hey Eric,here's a guide on how to replace.

fuse, ignition or relay or even fuel filter

Oops anyhow i just posted the same question .our problem starts by putting the hood holder rod next to the headlight instead of next to the battery when we close our hood then our next problem is we turn our lights on well the hood holder rod gets in a bind when it tries to open .soo the short of it is that it gets bent so no guarantee adjusting it will work .that being said this process should work perfect on the drivers side .for the passengers side it just depends how many times it was put on the wrong side and tried to turn on the lights and how badly the mechanism was bent!!!!!!!

I have a PDF file about it if you want it.

check the coil or coil pack

No flow of coolant-replace pump
