Thanks A lot for your Informative Video it gives me peace of mind now, I though I did something wrong during the cleaning. I just clean my 2013 Chevy spark throttle butterfly and after that exactly the same issue happened, its fluctuating when its idle, i'm gonna drive it for couple of days hopefully it will be fixed.
Hey thanks for the video. I have a chevy spark 2014 wit this issue. First I change the maf, then 4 spark plugs with ignition coil, then the oxygen sensor. Now Im trying yo find the iac valve, everybody saying that it get dirty, but I can't find it, supposed is behind the throttle body... any tips please?
If you mean the PCV valve. Yes it gets dirty and should be changed at 30-50k. It can cause misfires and foul the cylinder 4 spark plug out. It’s located behind cylinder four (right under the right side of the engine by the throttle body that is shown in the video) it looks like a big plastic nut that has a hose going to it before you remove it and see the valve.

I know this vid is old but I hope I get a response from you. I just purchased a 2014 Chevy spark 1lt with practically 82k miles. Everything was fine until a few miles later it started having idling issues and would stall. Turns back on fine and all. Did you have this issue before having to do this process, seems everywhere I look that this is the issue and this is the procedure that needs to be done. Look forward to a response, thanks!
Good video. This 2015 Chevy Spark LT starts, Idles, then after 2-3 mins shuts off. If I attempt to drive it with-in those three mins, it only goes 8 or 9mph. When it was purchased(used from Auction) it drove 8-9mph all the home(5-6miles away). any clues or suggestions?
Here are a few possibilities to consider: Fuel delivery problem: It's possible that there is an issue with the fuel system, such as a clogged fuel filter or a malfunctioning fuel pump. Insufficient fuel supply could cause the engine to shut off after a short period of idle or restrict its performance. Ignition system malfunction: Problems with the ignition system, including faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or the ignition control module, can lead to engine misfires or inadequate power delivery. This could result in the vehicle's limited speed and poor performance. Throttle body or sensor issues: The throttle body controls the amount of air entering the engine, and if it becomes dirty or malfunctions, it can affect engine performance. Additionally, faulty sensors, such as the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor or the throttle position sensor, can disrupt the air-fuel mixture, leading to a lack of power or stalling. Engine control module (ECM) problems: The ECM is the vehicle's main computer that controls various engine functions. If the ECM is experiencing issues, it may not be properly regulating fuel and ignition timing, resulting in the symptoms you described. Exhaust system blockage: A clogged catalytic converter or exhaust system can restrict exhaust gas flow, leading to reduced engine power and poor performance.
The next day after driving what's the voltage of the battery, you may have a short somewhere. Look up the alternator fuse on the internet for your specific year and model
The fisrt pro I had with my 2014 Chevy Spark LT was the starter. At first the car would “turn off” after getting off the freeway and me coming to a full stop, parked!! And one day it wouldn’t turn on at all and my friend told me to hit the starter hard with something. We got a rock and hit it and the car started. However after that o had to had the starter replaced. But a few days ago my car began shaking and the check engine light and the stability track light turned on and I was able to get off the freeway and to my home with the car shaking all the way… and then Fedor’s video came across my intense search and it worked for me.
Hello did you ever figure out why it shut off on you. My 2014 Chevy Spark drives fine then won't go when pushing the gas pedal and it idling then gets ready to shut off. Could you tell me whats wrong with it thanks.
Same problem; Starts, Idles, then after 2-3 mins shuts off. If I attempt to drive it with-in those three mins, it only goes 8 or 9mph. When it was purchased(used from Auction) it drove 8-9mph all the home(5-6miles away). any clues or suggestions?
Please stfu and if the guy wants to make a video, he can make a video. He wanted to share what worked for him. He never said it would work for you or anyone else so take your Karen shit elsewhere
It is about to save me a couple hundred dollars I don’t have and I would have ended up paying the mechanic to fix it. Thank you!

So on 3 min with heater on then off 1 min then on 3 min then off 1 min then on 3 min then it worked for you

You ever figure out the fix? I just replaced the MAF sensor and I'm still having issues.

I actually had to replace Spark Plugs on mine, they were super dirty
Yes I had a similar issue to yours

May not be getting enough fuel, use the OBDII scanner to check the pressure of the fuel.

By any chance do you know where the alternator fuse is. Got new alternator put in and 3 new batteries but car keeps dying.
The next day after driving what's the voltage of the battery, you may have a short somewhere.

It was fluctuating when was on idle but after couple of days the issue is gone

How to improve low pick up in this car
You gonna make more March of empires videos?
I quit the game when update 27 came out.
Start playing again it’s not that bad
@@sacredtaquito1311 I need time off, the game is addicting. I gave my account away.
Do a video on the clutch pedal box on these cars.Absolute shit pedal arm made of plastic snaps clean off very common issue on these turds!
You apparently are not a mechanic, you probably work at an auto salvage yard.
Please quit posting fake videos that cause people to take apart their car and ruin it!
Please have some knowledge before you make these videos
Please stfu and if the guy wants to make a video, he can make a video. He wanted to share what worked for him. He never said it would work for you or anyone else so take your Karen shit elsewhere
If you have more knowledge I’d appreciate you making some vids instead of leaving useless comments like this
