subpennyman Posted February 14, 2005 Author Share Posted February 14, 2005 The car runs pretty darn good with neither white or green connectors connected. Definitely driveable- I took it to the gas station and put some in, and drove back home. I will unplug the MAF Sensor next opportunity I have and see what happens with the green connectors- It may be a day or two. Thanks for your help guys!

royboy159 Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Hey Hoozie----I scanned the thread you provided and it does appear the MAF may be involved as some of the engine's behavior looks like hot wire failure. We'll Know if timing is a factor if the engine responds favorably to adjustment with the green connectors connected. Hey Sub----Slow but sure we're getting all the bugs out. She's goin' to be good for another 100,000! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royboy159 Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 Hey Sub---I have to retract my recommendation in post #33. I don't know alot about neutral or clutch switches so my test may not help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royboy159 Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Hey Sub---I have a theory on what's going on with your Loyale. It will be problem #13. Replacing the O2 sensor and replacing the timing belts has the car running pretty fair. But just connecting the Test connecters causes the engine to act very sick. It could be that the ECU's test mode programming has become corrupt. If this is true then no retiming or part replacements are going to stop the engine dying in Test mode. And codes stored in the memory may not be accurate. I've heard cheap ECUs can be had for $50. But your ECU may run the engine for quite a long time without further failure. roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
