Then when i get home, I un-hook the battery and hook it back up, and presto the engine light goes out! This has happen about 6 time now! I dont think it has anything to do with I/C pump because this is worse, like the motor is running 4 cylinders and the whole car is shaking! I will keep all of you updated, I dont think I have much of a choice but drop the pulley kit and play dumb at the dealership!
What you have there is a mis-fire on several cylinders. Usually accompanied by a FLASHING CEL. If this is the case, the codes will confirm.
