Re: OK, so Crank Position Sensor didn't help...
Still an intermittant problem and a real headscratcher. Car sat for 3 weeks, long enough for a rat to make a cozy little nest on top of the battery from a shop rag I had underhood
He filed his teeth a bit on the first 1" of positive battery cable but I don't see any other chew damage
Started the car last night, drove it 4-5 miles gently then used the loud pedal agressively for a couple miles
All was perfect. This am, gonna run an errand, fired up fine for 10-15 seconds then the stumble sets in. THe whole car shakes and the RPMS drop below 500, applying throttle in Park does almost nothing, RPMS will rize but very very slowly. I actually shut it off, restarted the engine and it ran fine for 30 seconds or so.
Diagnosis is not my forte, I'm more willing to throw parts at it myself than overpay at the dealership. Will a bad cam sensor trigger a check engine light? No check engine light is on now.
Thanks for the suggestions to look at lines and TB, all is well there, nice and secure with no splits. Cant really see the bottom T (I have the Needswings DCAI and teflon coated T) splitter but there is no way it would have ran so strong last night if that was separated.
Any other ideas? I don't have access to a scan tool(or really know what to do with it anyway
)
