George...... Any chance I can stop by in a weekend or so to take a look? Car is pissing me off.
Anyways... Here's a list of my problems. I've found some solutions on se-r.net, but those are with really crappy instructions. Where the hell is the TPS sensor anyways? ... Which connector do i disconnect from AAC valve to see if idle is set?....... Lots of others.
Here's a list of problems I sense with my car so far...
1-BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD MILAGE. 18mpg and lowering for some reason...
Cause: Maybe Blocked EGR Tube/Valve? How do i clean these?
O2 sensor was replaced less than a month ago.
Maybe bad plugs or dirty injectors? I use injector cleaner though......
2- Erradic Idle. EGR is causing this probably. Idle was NOT set correctly when i sent it into Infiniti to get AAC replaced. When i got the car back, it idled at a wonderful 1500RPM. Great... @#$@#*)( YOU INFINITI. I turned the AAC screw a bit, lowered it to about 950. I still suspect the idle is not set correctly. Where the hell is the Throttle Position Sensor anyways? I need to set idle....... Se-r.net instructions are pretty lacking in detail.
3- Cruise not working. Probably the ASCD Actuator/pump. Not too worried about this. Cruise is for long distance only, anyways. Maybe i'll test it later when i get access to a FSM.
4- Exhaust is choking/backfiring a bit.... or it souunds like it. I rev it up to arouund 3k or so..... and let the gas off. The exhaust quiets down, meanwhile making little put noises. Is this normal?
5- I can't even see where my EGR Valve is. Its not on top of the throttlebody. Nothing is. Picture doesn't do much for me
.... Do i need carb cleaner to gunk this ?
6- Fuel meter is way off. After driving 40 or so miles. its down to 3/4. Then jumps up a bit after i wait overnight or something... then drops down fast etc etc. Very erradic. Probably something to do with bad fuel milage.
If anyone has any input on this, email me or just reply.
