Check your coolant temp sensor and make sure the two wires aren't damaged.

^^^ Where exactly is this located on the motor? I might be having the same issue. I have spark, fuel, but motor rotates slow. However, the battery is fully charged. The car ran last week and a few days later when I went to start it, it won't start. Weird things is that if the key is turned on in the ignition, you can hear a clicking sound coming from the throttle body.

This was a big part of the problem surprisingly, I dont know why a temp sensor would do it but after it was fixed it ran better. then we picked up some 450s and it ran like the champ its suppoded to be until the timing belt skipped a tooth. damn things. Thanks for the help tho.

Anyone know what this is? My buddy is having a similar issue on his 1g... He is lost on it and I dont have time to help him right now. Plus, the car I am looking at buying has a similar issue as well. Any help would be appreciated.
