i dont know where to start on this but i have a feeling its an efi sensor.
ok i had a slight problem a while back but only when first starting motor. started whn i cleaned the intake where the plastic meets the metal, where it said not to use any cleaner in it. i used cleaner in it. hte problem only existed at start up.
yesterday it was real cold and actually snowed in houston texas!
the problem was very bad at start up and did not want to go away as usual.
(sputters and wont idle right)
after warming up it went away. on the way home while stopped at a light it came back. if it happens while driving i can give it gas, and let off suddenly it sometimes goes away immediately.
i hate to sound like a moron for asking, but thats the best way to narrow it down. im thinking this is the best place to find the right answer.
i have to drive a little today, but hope i can mess with it tomorrow.
thinking the sensor i cleaned may be the problem, not sure the name of it, MAF maybe?
need help on this, please reply if you know how to go about solving.
thanks
