Hello I'm new to forums and needed to ask a question about my car listed above. I just picked it up from online it's a fwd 2wd. I'll drive it for a good while 30 minutes to an hour and turn it off then it doesn't want to start until a few hours go by. also there is a whistle coming from the engine sounds like a turbo whistle in a way but there is no turn. it's the non turbo model and its motor was changed to a motor out of a 3000 gt which was rebuilt 60,000 miles ago.

Hello,

This could be a problem with your vehicle's Crankshaft Position Sensor or the "Crank angle/TDC sensor" as it's called on your vehicle going out. In the diagrams down below I have included the factory directions for the removal and installation of the Crank Angle/TDC sensor. Please go over this guide and get back to us with how everything turns out.

Thanks,
Alex
