Sound like what was listed on tuners? Did you notice any lose wires or carbon scaring where it may have jumped?

no rodents but now it wont start. i hear the fuel pump come on and there is absolutly no power going to the starter. what do you think i should do
Check the Remote wire for the starter, its on top of the starter, just a 10-15 ga wire.
I was having a wierd thing like this where i accidentally shorted the remote wire and the car tried to start. scared the shit out of me because my hand was deep in the engine at the time. But that would explain why your car wont start now.
Other then that, that freakin nuts. I would call your local priest for an exorcism asap.

So if the key was not in the car how did you shut if off? Or did it die when you went into the garage? JET is correct the ignition switch would have needed to be on and power going to the MPI relay and the ECU/fuel pump other wise a shorted wire to activate the start would only turn the motor over, but it would not start. I would assume the garage was filled with exhaust fumes and the radiator and such was warm/hot from the car running for 15min?

another vote for spirit or somthing. I was at home watching tv and at 1am in the morning the light over me turns on for no reason, that was wierd.

You have a wiring issue somewhere in the car. It is serious problem because if your car was in gear life would really suck.

Check under your dash to make sure he did not leave any wire open or any wire tape together. All you need is to add to volts to your ignition or starter wire and the car will start. The auto start might still be in the car. So, it might be faulting out. Go under the dash and look for wires that is not factory. Follow the wires and it should lead you to the brain. Disconnect the brain. Once you disconnect the brain try to start the car. If it does not start you will need to put the brain and take it to someone who know alarms and have them solder back you starter and ignition wire.

Already solved, but i think he tried to wire an alarm to the starter cause the starter kept going in intervals while it was started so it was all messed up. now its fixed.....anyone want to buy a alarm/starter j/k
