    heater no longer functions

    Winter is here and the heater only works when on the highway or when the engine is at high RPMs (>3k). Any other time it just blow air. If I push the temp knob and turn the system to auto, the lcd turns on but the fan stays off. Then if by chance I take the highway instead of going thru...

    Yep it was just a bad ignition coil! Stuttering is gone. Now there's just the issue of it running lean. How do you tell if the solenoids or clutch bands need replacing in the tranny? Would a good flush take care of it?

    Ok so I decided to pull out some plugs and check em. She's definitely running lean, plugs are white. Upon checking the sparks I noticed every few ignites it misses one. It will go something like ...spark spark spark spark....spark spark... spark spark spark spark....and so on Could it be just...

    I already posted the codes............ 25 and 71 Though after clearing them 25 doesn't flash anymore. My guess is its just the O2 sensors.

    Egr was clean. If suction is applied it kills the engine like its supposed to. My guess the vacuum switch is throwing the code (part number 90910-12080)

    still plagued with problems

    As far as I know, I've covered all the basics, plugs, cables, distributors, ignition coils, not the ignitors yet. Fuel filter, fuel pressure, fuel pump. Maf, tps. Also the radio has stopped working. The antenna comes out, and the led works. I can change stations, but there's no sound. Not even...

    I replaced the ecu today, and she started right up like nothing was ever wrong. But under slight acceleration or load like going up a hill, it seems like she's skipping like all the cylinders stop firing for half a second. Or almost like the tranny is slipping then catching very quickly. If I...

    What could cause an ECU to go bad?

    So I haven't been driving my SC for about a year now. After having 3 shops tell me they can't find anything wrong with it, I finally took it to a dealership to figure out what was wrong with it. Turns out its the ECU, like I suspected all along. So, before I pop in a new one. Is there...
