Subject: Another my C4 is a piece of $4!# car becuase it has a miss that comes on suddenly...... by NC Kid on 2011/2/13 17:48:59 Well, theres really no point in going into detail as it's the same thing each time I post....some "miss" just started. Poured sea foam thru oil and vacum line on car as it had been sitting for quite awhile. New battery, oil change, fuel filter, drained tank/new gas replaced fuel sock/pump awhile back. Ran techron/chevron and premium BP gas. Started it up and it's a damn miss. It is a HORRIBLE and I mean horrible miss. If it's running on SEVEN cylinders, I will be shocked. It feels like a weak 4 cylinder trying to accelerate and the revs jump up but it's not wanting to go. Im thinking bad plugs or wires....Checked everything else out...Will try to post up a sound clip or something later if I can't figure it out...I hate my car sometimes... Runs great and then all of a sudden, it's crap again. Vacum leaks, bad plugs, bad wires, bad cap/rotor, coil ect....I know all that.....The cap/rotor are practically new, no vacum leaks, maf is clean and no codes, Everything is great that my eyes can see....Hmm....Also believe I have a leaking exaust manifold gasket as it's making that dreaded exaust ticking sound i have heard before. Shoulda replaced both sides when I found out about that failture.....Ugh... Anyway, sorry for the long post but am just throwing my thoughts into this post so it's all a big brainstorm of ideas flowing thru my mind and onto the computer screen... Hmmm....Back to the thinking chair! Im going to also add, it's not the cats, EGR, air pump, ac system, heating/cooling system or any of that stuff becuase it's all been upgraded and or deleted if possible. The car is hardly driven enough to pollute and I had all the emissions taken out of the chip by pcmforless. Might I add, Alvin is a damn good tuner! |
