tizzle Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Ok, this problem has plagued me for years. The RX is not my primary driver, but when i do drive it, some times when it gets warmed up, and I am at a stop, trying to go. There will be no power and a muffled front end backfire/hiccup. I have to put the clutch in and rev up really high to power out of it. Maybe related, It could be idling fine, and the just drop 500rpm out of the blue. -Todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tizzle Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Would an exhaust leak between the engine and manifold cause or explain the burping sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKghandi Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 sounds like the maf acting up, or the intake pipe leaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobiedubie Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 A vacuum leak can do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tizzle Posted April 21, 2014 Author Share Posted April 21, 2014 alright, i will clean out the air sensor and check for leaks. I'm also go to do a proper adjustment on the throttle position sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naru Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Sounds like a plug fouls at idle to me. Pull plug wires to find the dead one next time it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
