She has been running great, only 156,000 mi. Car fairly new to me so I don't know much about it. Dash air vents were not working consistently so I've been taking the dash all apart and checking for vacuum leaks. So, I've been working under the dash and tracing vacuum lines under the hood. Have replaced the main line and the check valve. Had the battery disconnected while doing this. I disconnected the door switch so I wouldn't have to listen to the warning chime... Could this have any effect? Decided to start & do some testing and she starts, but dies. Can't keep running even with more throttle. Smells rich. Did I touch something? Or is this just coincidence that something decided to break now? BTW, the check engine light came on once the other day on a 160mi trip and could not find any reason. Never ran badly and the light cleared itself. I don't know where to start in the FAQs. Any hint would be greatly appreciated.
