Plymouth Fury Starts then quits
Loving the game so far! It's fun to just drive and explore! I just found two Plymouth Fury's at a gas station and put the fluids in one. Gas is 3/4 full, too. It starts up, runs for a second, then quits. Should I try trading engines? There is another engine inside the station. The engines all look the same, quality-wise. Thx!

Which engine are your trying to use, the V8?

Double check the oil tank, gas tank and your radiator for mixed fuel, water or oil, I have made that mistake a few times. I had to dump it all out...
Is the radiator rusted really bad??

All tanks are pure 100% Gas, Oil or water. Original engine, so I think V8. The engines are original, each Fury has an engine plus one engine in the building. I am trying to start the Green Fury, It's the tinted (Like Christine, lol). The red one has an engine, but no fluids. Maybe the green radiator is bad? I will try trading that first.

OK, I have swapped out 4 different V8's and each one is the same...it starts up, runs for a second, the Oil light comes on as it dies. It has full oil, 5L. Any help would be great. What am I missing? Is it just a lemon? Or, do I need to find a pristine V8? Thx!

Umm, I'm a moron! LOL...Just noticed the car has 47% Diesel and 53% gas...oops! I could have sworn I put gas in that tank!

That would do it
Elryck Oct 6, 2022 @ 12:02am 
Lol, yep! Running great now. Just found red paint..she is now "Christine" red!

I just wonder what that Fury would be like with a "Two Stroke" in it....Lots of Laughs but....the economy.

LOl, yeah, that would be comical! FYI, draining a tank is easy if you install the hose, connect to another can, then tip the can over while the tank drains. Went to sleep, and gas tank was empty! Easy-peasy! lol
PrestonLK Oct 6, 2022 @ 11:45am 
Yeah the hose is the easiest way to empty the tank, but I find tipping the car over to be more entertaining personally

Hey, also of note, when the song on a custom music list changes, the game freezes for a second...real fun at 60+ mph, lol! (Well MP3 file songs, anyway. Not sure about other formats)

use .wav > less freezing

Thanks! I'll try that!
BTW, the dash is rusty. I tried the brush, spray and sponge, nothing seems to work. Do I need a "perfect" brush maybe?
Elryck Oct 7, 2022 @ 9:55am 
NVM. The dash just needed more brushing, lol! It's nice and shiny now!
