Get an OBII scan done (any good parts store can do it) Sounds like O2 sensors but have scan done & codes will identify the problem(s)

Hi and welcome to FixYa!

As a first course of action, please do replace the battery connectors. If the battery connectors are worn out they tend to loose. If they are loose there will be no electric current return. One good reason why it goes flat right away.

Another thing is that it can be a loose battery cable to the ground. Have it secured and replace if necessary.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

Many things... When was last "healthy" tune up? Plugs, wires, ALL filters especially fuel filter??? I would start there. Also might want to run a good fuel system cleaner like SeaFoan, STP etc through with next tankful of fuel

Clean your electric throttle system.

You may have to pull the glove box out or look under the dash.

Don't know how to lock in the front axle (Rt) side the passenger side?

do a compression test first, that will give you an idea if the engine is still good. it should be between 185 to 213 psi with a maximum difference of 28.4 psi under or over. this sounds like the compression is in the pan and not in the cylinders.

yes the drive will clear the water by the fact that the engine gets hot ,some garages love to play with their toys this is nothing just a bit of condensation caused by short runs .

the heater in the O2 sensor isnt working ,sensor 2 is one after the cat

may be a faulty spark plug / lead or similar electrical fault.

HOPE THIS HELPS

inlet air temp for the engine is located inside the MAF
the "air temp", like the one for the outside temp that is displayed on the dash is located in front of the condenser

Seat belts cannot be fixed for safety reasons. If there's nothing obvious blocking the action of the belt then the only fix is to replace it entirely. If you get a replacement from the scrapyard then do not take it from one which has suffered impact damage.

depending on year and model your best source is the dealer

however, you can buy the dealer service manuals at helm.com
