wanted: help in socal...

My t2 runs shitty...

****Rich
***3500 hesitation
**Power loss
*SHITTY MILAGE!!!



So far ive grounded my entire system, repaced the tps and adjusted it, cleaned and flowbenched the injectors with new orings, and tested my o2/coolant temp sensors.

All to which have not fixed the problem in any way.

I want to use somebodys working s4 t2 maf/tps/map sensor, to see if that will help fix my mixture issue. I tried to get readings from both the maf and map, and couldnt get any volts or ohms from either...But i cant afford to just replace both these parts...especially since i cant trust the forums for working parts. If anyone in the area has any of these laying around, and can spare an hour or so in the morning to let me test them on my car, i would greatly apprtiate it. Im in school from noon to 7pm, but have weekends off. let me know...

****Rich adjust the lean/rich mixture..
***3500 hesitation check the injectors, they might be leaking..
**Power loss check the spark plugs/wires, battery ground, test the coil packs..
*SHITTY MILAGE!!! change out the fuel filter, check the fuel pump..

basically give the damn car a full 60,000mile tune up, i know that its a bit pricey but well worth it..especally if your going to own one of these cars..and with turbo's you have to spoil the car with everything..but i could be wrong i've never owned a turbo model but im sure that i've read enough to know that they are sensitive..

DO NOT TOUCH THE RICH LEAN MIXTURE SCREW< UNLESS IT HAS ALREADY BEEN MOVED. Use the FSM to test the boost sensor, TPS, and the coolant sensor that is on the t-stat housing. that is where the CPU gets it temp. If that goes bad, it will run VERY rich and not want to rev. But dont trust us, go DL the FSM.
