um... did this happen after you changed something? your not giving a whole lot of information. When did this start happening? do you have a CAI on your car and have you recently driven through alot of water?

I thought 'Select' was in there before 'Start'?

Been a while. I could be wrong.

behind ur motor there is a lock that goes directly to ur pistons.
use ur car key and turn it left.
next go into ur car pop ur trunk, then ur hood, then ur gas tank lever.
next go to the gas station and get me a a big bag Cheeto's. (I'm hungry)


honestly i have no idea. ask taco for a miss taco pic. maybe that'll solve ur problem.

This was in reply to someone with similar problems. Change 5000 to 3000 for your engine.
