danbennett2u Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 if you had maf and IAC issues why were the crank position sensor the tps and the ignition module replaced? a little confused as to what was done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tntkenny0927 Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 car has hella mileage i recently changed the sensors before doing the diagnose to find out the maf code... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 crank sensor either works or doesn't. Same with ignition module. TPS you can test if it's bad or not, they're expensive. Why blindly replace it? What are you asking here? You have a maf code, it's either the sensor or the wiring. Check the wiring, if it's good replace the sensor.

tntkenny0927 Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 after replacing everything no engine codes but still really high rpm on reg and cold start ups over 2k the leak should just be vcg but still worried bout the smoking like crazy...

heartless Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 the smoking is more than likely oil burning off on the hot exhaust. find and fix the oil leak and it should stop. how soon does the high idle come down? my 90 LS wagon will kick the idle up on initial start up, they are supposed to do this, but if it is fairly warm out (60+) it comes down fairly quick, usually less than a minute. anything below 50 degrees, it takes it a little longer, really cold out (below freezing) it can take 5 minutes or more. fluctuating idle would more than likely be a vacuum leak - old, dry vacuum hoses dont seal well and/or could have cracks in them. fwiw - my wagon has over 223K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe your oil pump is leaking? Cam seal? Pop off the timing belt cover and see whats going on in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
