the oil is at the right level and feels and smells good, when i was messing with it the car kept cranking slower and slower till it wouldnt crank but the battery voltage was good, now when u turn the key u can hear it engage and sounds like its trying to start, i was gonna say weak starter BUT why would it stall and sputter
Check the power out-put of the battery when cranking. If it shoots down to like 3-4 then you need a new batt. All my connectors were corrided and my terminals were clean so, yeah i put a new batt on and terminal connectors and WHAM runs like a champ. Check that. Also check the start for loose connections, i had that problem too. And also check the coil packs, ive had the sputtering problem from them as well... good luck
