On Saturday, I lifter the rear end of my mirage to change out the drum brakes. I spent about 3 hours with the car like that while I inspected the drums and how they work. Turns out, someone had replaced them at some point before so there were still fine. I cleaned up the grime and put the old brakes back on, the old drum back on, and drove the car to my usual parking spot (apartment complex).
Next evening, I go to start the car... The starter goes and the car shakes violently for about 5-6 tries before giving up. During the process, many other dash lights come on and the battery light blinks. Then I get a service engine light.
I got the battery tested, 80% and healthy. I checked the coil packs, they are all firmly in place and plugged in and the tubes they go in are very clean. I am going to go get the socket I need to check the sparkplugs while I have that part of the car accessible (it has ~95 miles). My uncle says that it sounds like a solenoid issue. Anyone have any suggestions?
