ok nothing seams to go agenst your last comment about the battery. i agree complettly but i have a question on this, i did jump the battery with a car (4 banger honda, small battery) and when i cranked the van over it had a very strong crank.

so my question is, even tho it sounds like theres a strong crank, would you still advise that it is still the battery being worn down?

i mean its gonna need changed anyways (its so dead u need to jump it to start anyways.) but im just trying to find a final solution so i can better help this lady out.

Ya there is plently of fuel psi. and the car runs fine, just when i start it i need to use starter fluid to get it going.

keeping in mind that the battary sucks [and every time i go to start it the car needs jumped] could this battery be so dead that it wont creat enugh power for the spark plugs to ignite gas but it will ignite the starter fluid. then the altinators power takes over and is suficent enugh to power the spark plugs more so they can now ignite gas as well. dose this sound something that could happen at all? ive only been a mechanic for a year now so im still learning these things
