    instead of replacing all of these parts did you try to narrow it down, and seeing what is causing the issue ?

    • @jeremy.messer
      @jeremy.messer  5 лет назад +10

      I narrowed it down the best I could by scanning the codes. I originally was going to replace the throttle position sensor which is part of the throttle body, but was not a guarantee to fix it. The cost of the throttle body from Auto Zone was in the $150 range. So I purchased all the part (throttle body + gasket, map sensor, mass air flow sensor, and gas pedal) from eBay for around $113.00. So I thought it only seemed reasonable to just replace them all so I could eliminate the issue and still save money.

    I can almost promise you that is was blockage in the crank case saying blow back. Also. Very stupid design motor boss. Where the cover seats sucks in air if not installed properly and that was most likely the issue I just did one. POS car haha, I reset all my throttle and reset learned it all, now it’s great, may need a VVT selenium also, I will see after oil change. That controls the lifters it has two on top the motor far right by coil packs. I hated this job, ughh. Nice video. Probably could have passed on a pedal.

  • @hassanhajjhussein8334
    @hassanhajjhussein8334 5 лет назад +1

    It seems to me that the problem has to do with the air/gas stoichiometry. It could be a vacuum leak causing unmetered air into the engine. I don't think that it is possible for all these parts to go out at the same time. was the problem fixed in the long run?

    • @jeremy.messer
      @jeremy.messer  5 лет назад +2

      The problem was fixed. It may have not been all of the parts going bad at the same time. See the response to IsBoR above for more details.

    • @TourettesMobileMechanic
      @TourettesMobileMechanic 2 года назад +1

      Well, THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IS THE POOR DESIGN OF THE ENENIE COVER. It holds the crank case tubing as well as the air intake is known to leak and suck in air so your dead on. Little over kill but oh well. I just worked on a POS like this. Just a air leak. Poor mechanic prior did not tighten it down. Smh.

    My 2011 drives then throws reduce engine power/trac control and shakes and won't go over 20mph. You turn it off for an hour then it will drive again. Took it to a mechanic and they said they took apart the throttle body and checked the engine harness and they don't know what's wrong with it. They made it worse, now it dies shortly after starting a long with the problems it already had.

      The very first time I replaced my throttle body and did not replace the gasket it did the same exact thing. So I took it off and took it back to Auto Zone. I then order a throttle body, gasket, mass air flow senor, map sensor, and throttle sensor (gas pedal) off ebay and replaced it all. The best thing about this is that I order all those part and they saved me $40 when compared to purchasing the throttle body from Auto Zone.
