HEY HELP 86 N/A.... Please...... Heres whats going on. I flushed my radiator today. Then I went to start the 7 and she cranked up but the moment I touch the throttle there is hesitation in the response....then the motor sounds like its about to die, so I gas it and the motor Revs but then the car dies on me...like BAM my bitch is dead. Now heres the crazy part I can rev up to 5k only on start up. Now after start up I can keep the car running if I rev up and keep it at 2k only. I checked every hose possible on my baby, nothing.....there is some smoke thats coming from or underneath the throttle body too. I JUST NEED HELP PLEASE>>>>>>>>>>THANKS

Did you do anything else but drain the rad and refill? Odds are you got coolant into your TPS and/or onto the plugs/wires. Dry the engine with a hairdryer (this will take some time) and see if things improve.

 

Can everything dry over night in a hot ***..... garage, with the hood up?

 

Coolant will take a long time to dry, so you might want to hose it down first. Then let it dry overnight. But activly drying it with a heat source (hairdryer, NOT a heatgun) is the best choice.

 

ok Thanks time to call the the girlfriend and explain why I need her Hair dryer........LOL

 

mmm, i have the same problem sometimes. Acts like its missing like freaking hell. Floor the acell and you can bearly keep it allive. Happened too me 5-6 times now... Always under these conditions:
1: Vacumn hose not just leaking but disconnected all togheter.
2: MAP sensor harness not connected
3: MAP sensor adjar from intake tubing
4: air Filter wet
5: when i overheated the car with the a/c on at the bank drive-through (oops) -- the car died right when I tried to leave the bank drive-through. Flooded herself to hell too. Had to let her sit 5 hours to cool down and she popped off after about 3 minutes of cranking.
6: flooded.

 

Can you describe where the MAP is so can make sure I have the right one!!

 

In front of the RHS strut tower:

 

ok i did check the map sensor today, everything is connected, I even dryed it with the hair dryer and nothing.

 

86's have backpressure activated actuators? just a thought
