Check Fix, Surging, Wanting to die, Service Engine Light

[Hot Rod Lumina]

I replaced Spark plugs, Spark Plug Wires, Fuel Filter, Pulled EGR Valve (Lucky did not purchase and replace EGR VALVE!) Pulled Air Filter, and Pulled PCV Valve before finding that i could have saved $100 on the Spark Plugs, Plug Wires, and Fuel Filter that i bought by only pulling a simple fuse.

This may or may not be your problem, but it worked for me.


Before you go anywhere into expense try popping your hood, and opening the fuse box on the left hand side if your facing the front of the car. Pull the 15 or 20 amp fuse labelled ECM Batt, hold the fuse out for over 20-30 seconds, then replace the fuse, go get into the cockpit of your car, make sure you have the AC, Radio, even dome lights off with door closed. Now without touching the gas, hit the starter and let the car idle for about three minutes. If no missing, and your Service Engine soon light goes off, then this is more than likely your fix, also keep your foot on the brake, and put it into gear and let it idle after three minute, if it still does not miss, then you've found your problem. If this fixed the problem then your computer needed to relearn how to keep idle.
