But changed all the parts and still no change. and still no check engine lite. hooked scanner to it and no codes, and no memory codes
well if you have a scanner you can post up a screenshot of the live data.need the fuel status,STLT AND LTFT,RPM,MAP,COOLANT TEMP.also if this scanner has bi-directional support you can initiate system and component tests narrowing down the gremlin.

if you work on your own vehicle,one needs to have the correct tools.scan tool is on this list of need to have tools just as a wrench or socket set ect ect.AUTOENGINUITY is an excellent tool.for tuning SCANXL PRO is excellent to use in plotting cells.
