i just changed my thermostat and now my car doesnt want to run, it sounds like its backfiring through the airbox, making a popping sound, what could it be? it ran perfectly fine before i changed it.

just a guess...maybe you moved the distributor while removing your water neck

From my experience, if it was fine before I changed/worked on anything in my car that is what the problem is. So I'd pull it out again and see if it's in correct.

you can check the shrader valve located on the fuel lines in the front of the engine on the passenger side. Then you'll know for sure if your not getting fuel
