stuck in Toronto..kinda.. car acting up
Saturday, July 16, 2005 7:47 PM
Hey,
i had some problems after the bash.. and then it all went away...

i went this week to Toronto 4 hour drive... and the car is acting up again.

usualy when i am in lower rpms ( 1000 -2000) when i accelerate it drops the RPMS and sounds like its chocking and black smoke comes from the exahust. I stopped at a gas stop on the way here and i got some fuel injector cleaners,, i also tried to clean the intake temperature sensor and clean it ( not sure if its borken or not but when i unplugged it totaly it ran even worse)

i am frusturated and i cant find anyone here on the weekend to scan my car for codes
anyone got any quick ideas?

let me know, i am in the hotel now heh

thanks

^^^^^^ & Unplug your battery, let your PCM reset.

Canadian Tire can scan your codes, and they are open on the weekend. It's better than nothing... right? There are afew in TO.

Check the map sensor and wiring.

Tire places don't scan PCMs, you have to go to Canadian Engine for that,
