    I had a faulty PCV valve, it functioned just okay but it did allow some backflow and was quite dirty. I also had a potentially faulty MAF sensor, and a p0171 code. Between replacing those two and the spark plugs, my 100,000 mile 2.4l 2AZ-FE runs like the day it came out of the factory.

    Well done Scotty you're always on top of things that should be appreciated. Even old dogs like myself learn a thing or two from you. I've been working on cars since I was 14 , that was 63 years ago. But I'm more into the older cars the newer ones with all the electronic stuff in it, are not my cup of tea. That's why it's a treat watch someone who is kept up-to-date. You sure know your stuff. So say I, Moses of Englewood Chicago. By the way happy Halloween.

    I always check for codes first. If I'm out without a scan tool I'll pop the hood and look for hoses or connectors swinging in the breeze. I wish more cars would display codes. They give you a 7" color display that can pull audio and video from orbiting satellites but it can't show you the data in the box sitting next to it.

    That Toyota RAV4 is over 22 years old and still looks in good cosmetic condition. The engine and all the mechanical components also look in good shape too. Just a sensor replacement and some fuel injector cleaner and it looks ready to go for another decade. Toyota vehicles were tanks in the late 20th century but are now toys in the 21st century. How some mighty have fallen or tripped.

    Wonderful, but using logic it would have made more sense to start with the things on the car that measure temperature, since the problem was a temperature sensitive problem. Start with the code reader. Even with pre-computer control and carburetors if there is a cold start problem, check to see which engine items are affected by temperature. The good old thermostatic choke and the heat riser control valve were often the problem. Outside of California many folks just scrapped that automatic stuff and installed a manual controlled choke and cable....very popular JC Whitney item.

Standing out, independent thought, trying your best, figuring different ways of solving a problem, and using logic are extremely discouraged and even punished.

    Hello! I had a similar trouble with an Audi A4 1.8Turbo petrol. The temperature sensor for the cooling liquid was reading wrong the outside temperature. ECU responded with a rich condition when outside were 18-35 Celsius degrees. When the outside temperatures got to 15 Celsius degrees it started to work good again. I replaced the sensor. It costed 6 bucks. :) The mechanics were in a dillema about diagnosing the trouble. I changed first the coils, and the transmission with the water pump, the intercooler radiator, the petrol filter, the air and oil filter. ... They had troubles to diagnose the cooling liquid temperature sensor. Thank's for the tips, sir!

    I am retired and drive less than 5K miles a year. And little of that is stop and go; I avoid rush hour. So long term reliability is not so important--by the time my car hits 100K miles, I'll probably be in the ground. I've always bought practical cars and babied them. I want a car that's more fun to drive. I'm considering a turbo Mazda CX-5, or maybe a low mileage Lexus RX350. I ski, so AWD and room for equipment in the back would be nice. What do you think?

      @@rverro8478 I patted myself on the back after I fixed the heater and electrical issues on my mom's 2007 Chevy Uplander last weekend. I really need to replace the t-stat housing assembly on my car as the temperature rises on idle with the heater on at a red light for 3-5 minutes.

    My first reaction to when he said runs poorly when cold but fine once warmed up was to check the temp sensor. Had a similar problem with a 1990 Chevy truck. Changed the temp sensor and it ran better than new. Must have had a weak temp sensor since new. Still regret selling it back in 2006.

    I think a clogged injector would lead to a positive fuel trim. However, if the ECU thinks that the ambient temperature is warmer than it truly is (as is the case with a faulty temperature sensor in cold weather), the predicted density of air is lower than the actual air density and the ECU injects less fuel.

    Also coolant temp sensors signal the car to go into closed loop mode when the engine warms up. A bad one can make the computer think the engine is cold when it is really hot and the engine runs rich or it can make a cold engine appear warm and run the car lean on start up.

      Exactly what happened to my 1990 Chevy truck V6 5spd. Ran great cold but would die once warmed up. Black smoke poured out the exhaust. No ODBII back then so it took a while to track it down to the coolant temp sensor.

    He's right about seafoam doing nothing for your injectors. The definitely will clean your valves though. The only problem is that seafoam won't lubricate your valves or really anything for that matter and if it does its minimal. I found its best to use seafoam deep creep for a cleaning then after a 100 miles use good ol fashioned wd40 for lubrication. This is all through your throttle body of course.

    Hi Scotty
    We purchased a 2012 Ford Focus in 2015, it’s been a good car expect for a few thing just as the automatic/manual transmission and the fuel pump
    I went back to a Honda vehicle a CR-V and I love it we use to have a 91 Honda Accord that had 200,000 miles
    My sister has her mind set on another focus but I’m trying to convince her to go with a less troublesome car like a Toyota or Honda
    We’ve always had bad luck when buying used cars
    What are you thoughts on the Ford Focus?

    I hear some ticking from my engine I know its not the rods or the internals in the engine but I have a feeling its somthing to do with the oil in the engine because once the oil temo goes up it suddenly runs better but if its cold the engine makes the noise. Ive replaced my spark plugs and the injectors and Ive checked the alternator the steering pumo. At the same time I feel like this car allways made a ticking noise even from the factory. 2005 hyundai accent. Its a econobox but its lasted over 250,000 miles.
