2006 rs vector . Had it choked started it up was running moved the choke over it died. turned it over and over nothing. battery low put on jump box . resumed starting moved choked off pushed gas in let gas off tried to start very loud backfire . did not start . Gave it a couple hours same thing along with a backfire that sounded like a gun. Any ideas ? it has been running well until this. thanks

Had an 06 Vector that backfired 3-4 times in one day and it was the stator.

My friends was just doing that this last weekend. It turned out to be the plugs were fouled. Changed them and it started right up.

I wouldn't have been happy if it would have been a stator. Theres only 7500 miles on it.
