Aight i just bought an afm off of ebay and the door wont open by hand it works it just wont stay started what could be the problem

 

So, this is an S4 AFM? And the door won't open if you push on it? That'd be a broken AFM. You can open it up and have a look.

 

Yeah its a s4 ane i opened it and the first contact it touches and it wont go past it, its a long silver piece

 

No idea what you're referring to exactly, but there shouldn't be anything to stop the motion of the door. Maybe the spring is broken and has gotten jammed in the mechanism.

 

Aight guys i have been dicking with this car for two months now and still haveing trouble. i have an 88 t2 and i can not figure out what in the it problem is it bogs down and pops and shutters the motor has about 1500 miles on it just changed the afm plugs wires coils as of right now im just throwing money at it and the prob is still not fixed ran fine for about a day and now it hates me or something any input and if anyone can come by i would apreciate it thanks guys.

 

Thread Jack!

 

Its my own thread

 

Start by getting the FSM. Read it. Then follow the instructions on there to diagnose your car. Sorry to be so vague but it sounds like one of those issues people here are just going to throw ideas at and you will be running around in circles.

 

In all fairness, I think a mod merged the threads, lol. Hence the title in post # 5.

 

Thanks guys and i have a flat spot in my tps what do these cars act like when the tps is going bad

 

A dead spot in the TPS sweep can cause little hesitations and/or a bouncy idle.
