Ok so I'm on the side of the road after my evo started backfiring after 3000rpm and wouldn't go past 4000rpm, after turning off the engine, it just just wouldn't start afterwards, not it just clicks when I try to start is.... any ideas?

 

Plugs could be fried

 

On a Ralliart... give us some more info. Mods? Mileage? Were you driving hard, or just normally? Do you have ample gas? (Dumb, but sometimes you never know.) Did you overheat? Any CEL's?

 

1) Jumped timing (how many miles on the evo)?
2) Blown head gasket.

Those are the worst case scenarios. Plugs, I doubt it. If there was a pop noise, it could also mean IC pipe off.

Good luck man

 

Oh damn, didn't see that it was ralliart lancer, assumed it was an evo. Nevermind the IC pipe comment. Look more into jumped timing

 

I started to type the same thing when I realized it was a ralliart.

 

Why is this in Evo general.

 

Its an 05 evo 8 gsr....

My mods w/ flash are:

3" BR TBE Exhuast w/ Cat and SS o2 housing

HKS RS Intake

Perrin Frount Mount w/ Full hard pipe and Greddy RS BOV

Turbo XS Boost Controller, Walboro Fuel Pump,

GSC 272/264 Cams, arp head studs, clutch...


Have a p0300 cel code and a slight boost leak....

37,600 miles

 

I changed my profile since I have all the free time in the world while I sit in my car on the side of the road... it no longer says I drive a ralliart

 

p0300 is a random misfire which normally means you need to change yoru plugs. If it were a blown head gasket you could check your radiator fluid to see if theres any oil in it. and jumped timing.....well im sorry....I think its the plugs though.

 

Clicking as in wont turn over? Reading your post it sounds like it doesnt have the juice to turn the motor over. If this is the case, it sounds like a voltage issue. A dead alternator will force your car to run off the battery. As the battery drains, your motor will start running worse and worse.

Did you happen to have any warning lights prior to the motor running bad? Do you have full electrical function now?

 

Battery did die really fast so I donno, its finally at the shop after 3 hours, ill find out in the morning what's wrong

 

so the computer might be fried....

 

That is what most techs tell a customer when they have no idea what they are doing.

 

I hope so
