i just got a 2000 galant with the 2.4 & noticed a few things odd about it. First, on a cold start, the idle revs up to a little over 2k, almost 2.5k, then slowly comes down off its high. I'm thinking, bad IAC but I've only been wrenching for a few years. Associated with that(at least I think so) is when its warmed it for a bit, the idle drops below spec to between 600 & 800 RPM. When it drops, the oil pressure light comes on. Second, there's no emissions label that I can find on my car & i need to know if its a California model or Federal since I need to replace both O2 sensors & the cat. The first cat is original & blown out & the second one has the O2 sensor welded into the bung by some backwoods hick mechanic. Third, is the AC clutch serviceable as a separate unit or does the whole compressor need to be changed? The clutch is blown & embedded shrapnel in my belt.

I can walk the walk, so just let me know your diag. steps for the idle issue

 

Hi! My montero sport starts and runs for few minutes and than stalls and dies.when i unpluged the maf sensor it runs a lot longer but also dies after parking and than try to take off.i have tryed everything,the alternator was replace power fuse replaced, IAT sensor replaced and ofcurse replaced the MAF sensor too.i did not have this problem until the alternator was replaced.my brother did the job on the MAF and the IAT sensor and told me he just never seen anithing like that and he could not find the problem even with the hand held computer diagnostic.he recomended i take it to a shop for a more extensive and professional computer sysytem to see if they will find the problem.i will realy appreciate any help or sudjestion.thank you!

 

Check the ECU. Open it up, and look for obviously destroyed components. Take a high resolution photo of the back of the circuit board so that I can observe it for signs of heat damage.

Next time, make another thread.

 

got a 2001 mirage 1.8l and was wondering what parts from the lancer would work for power gain?

 

so far, youre leading the "most irrelevant post/ off topic" stakes on this thread.

 

The next ****ing dip **** to make a random post in a thread gets banned.

 

Newbi here...glad to have found this site. I am the proud owner of a 2005 Montero Ltd. Love this car. But....here's the problem. Have to leave the ignition switch in the on position for at least 25 seconds, then it will start after 5 or 6 cranks. If I do not do that it will take 15 or 20 cranks...and perhaps multiple attempts. Sounds like a new fuel pump and filter but I hate to drop the tank if it's something else. 97K miles. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Hello! If you could help me in one of my other threads, I flooded my engine and I think the starters bad, the engine won't crank and it makes a low hum when I hold it.
Also how can I manually crank my crankshaft?

I did a search for fuel filter for my 2005 endeavor but found nothing, can you tell me where it is and can I replace it my self, thanks, Michael.

 

Hey, I have an 07 outlander 3.0L and there is a weird buzzing/humming sound coming from the throttle position sensor when the ignition is on (not very loud). Is this common or a sign that the TPS on it's way out? I've asked this question before and still can't get an answer. Thanks
