Gilbert,
Arizona
So it pretty much happened out of know where honestly.
I just got done rebuilding this thing,timing belt, new seals all around, and a small 16g, but heres the weird part.
I had just started her up today and everything was pretty much perfect.
I go to work and come home a 6-8 hours later, try starting the car up and she runs like crap.
And no ones even touched the car.
When I start the car it barely idles for 30 seconds and dies. I can keep the car running if i give it gas though.
Sounds like a lawn mower honestly and there is major power loss. Car barely accelerates at all anymore.
Im assuming its running on less cylinders since it sounds like this, but why?
the cars not throwing any cel lights at all, new wires, and plugs, and gaskets pretty much all around. No noticeable vacuum leaks.
The only thing I can think of is maybe this ecu is toast? I just put it in here, but maybe the arizona heat got to it.IDK
