OK, I need help. I was driving relatively low speed when I hear what sounds like a gear grinding, it was really quick and then gone, and then I lose power. It accelerates but seems to be firing only on two cylinders.
WHAT JUST HAPPENED? I am so bummed as i just got this car back running with the FI. Any one have a super cheap Engine close that I can get to install this weekend? |

trigger points? Not likely. Each contact does one cylinder on each side. The Cap'n Just thought I'd add trigger points to the list in case all the other possible remedies produced negative results. The ones on my wife's car had a build-up of grease on the contacts and needed to be cleaned up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) If the engine's wiring harness is old and brittle, you could have broken conductors. Check for voltage at the injector plugs for the two offending cylinders (while cranking the engine). They should be pulsing voltages, so best too check with an analog voltmeter. If no voltage readings are present, perform an end-to-end check of the wiring from the injector plugs to the connector on the ECU. |
