Ok yesterday i needed to replace the hose for the antifreeze. I dont know the name of the hose but its the one behind the intake manifold connected to the block.

Let me tell you exactly what i did.

1) Removed negative battery terminal. (Just in case)
2) Removed intake assembly.
3) Removed fuel rail and injectors.
4) Removed intake manifold.
5) Replaced hose.
6) put everything back in order.

I dont get a leak anymore but my car wont turn over.

When i start it, the engine doesnt turn over. I was extra careful with the fuel injectors and i made sure none of the tips were screwed on them.

Please any kind of input would be helpful. Its been about a week since i drove the car and i think im going crazy soon.

so your car wont turn or wont start? if it doesnt turn, its not fuel related, but starter or lack of juice to starte. lets go from there

(don't beat me up for this) did you re-connect your battery?

Check your starter solenoid, it may be out. Either that or your battery's dead. If they both check out, there could be a grounded out wire somewhere from either the battery or starter. Or it could be the ignition switch.

Bump

why bump if you wont even answer our questions?

Sorry I should have gave an answer but I was in a rush.

Thanks for the help guys. I dont know what fixed the problem but i redid everything from reconnecting wires to reinstalling the intake manifold.

Its nice to see unselfish people on BF who dont only care about their own rides. Thanks for everything guys!
