Hi,

Ok foks, heres a funny one:

I have a 94 rodeo 5spd the 4 cylinder with about 180,000 miles.

story:
it has been running great, then one day the check engine light comes on, and then for a minute the brake light and seatbelt light start alternating flashing at me. then, the brake and seatbelt light turn off with the engine light remaining on. I drive it home with no problem.

problem:
next morning, I turn the key and the engine turns over strong, all electrical stuff works. but the car wont start.

I figure since I live in WI my fuel line must have frozen, so I wait for the heat of the day and try again but still nothing.

out of frustration I try to shake the truck violently to hopefully onclog some frozen fuel, then it starts!! I fuel it up, put the heet stuff in the tank, but it still wont start unless I shake it!

so for the past weeks I have had to shake my truck before every single start! until today when I cant get it to start at all.

what do you think?
