Legacy777 Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 I had a similar issue....turned out to be the MAF sensor, however I would check/replace your spark plugs & wires, fuel filter, and maybe run a tank of injector cleaner through.

djclue Posted February 7, 2005 Author Share Posted February 7, 2005 i just changed the spark plugs and was in the process of changing the atf fluid when we were filling it, it started to leak out of the pass side cv axle till most of it was all gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 hmmm.....you sure you filled the correct dipstick? The ATF is separate from the differential, which the axles go into. The ATF dipstick is on the driver's side, and the diff dipstick is on the passenger side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy777 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Front differential plug is on the under side, right around where the filler is, and I believe it is facing the passenger side. No you don't need to touch the rear diff. The tranny plug is further back on the car....and on the driver's side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
