dead R/T, need ideas
My R/T is currently dead. First the started quit working, but everything else seemed fine, got me home no problem. Next time I drive it is to go put a new starter on it at a buddy's, place, but it promptly overheats in traffic. I let it cool down in a parking lot, and when I try to push it down a big hill with 2 guys helping it won't start at all.
AT first i thought I warped the head from overheateing, that happened on my old EF Civic hatch. Then a guy on .org said he it sounds like a wiring issue, but I can;t see anythin wrong with the engine harness from what i can see of it with out jacking the car up.
I have nowhere to work on the car here except the side of the road, I have nothing but basic hand tools and a factory Neon jack.
I'm kinda out of options, I might have to pay a ton of money for someone to fix it for me, something I can afford but am not really comfortable with being a DIYer, or try to sell the car cheap as-is on craigslist. Its currently eyesore-filthy and parked in a neighborhood of $800-1M homes so i can't leave it there long.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Messed up that he would try to make $300 on my misfortune? That's what I said, in which case i was promptly told that I'm "crazy" by both of my roommates. They are both essentially rich, I guess that's how you do it.

Its not Cali vs midwest, if anything people are friendlier here. In this case it is likely related to class and culture as the guy supposedly comes from one of the wealthiest families in Turkey. Actually they want me out, offended at my "outburst" when I told him his offer was fucked up.
I was supposed to be moving to Florida next week before this shit happened.
Probably towing it to Pep Boys today.

Man that's fucked up....... hope "Pepe" boys doesn't fuck you also.
I'd check for fuel and spark, but kinda hard with no tools and having to push start.
Fuses good?
