well here i go
I started to tune my car...got my MAFT and whatnot
gino gets my TPS sensor all adjusted
we're driving around with the laptop, go to a barren street and go WOT from a stop, it studders then 9 degrees of knock right away...the o2 sensor looks like its crapping out
today i got a new one and poped that in....it was running great!!! before i started it up i checked the TPS and it was like 4.4 at WOT (i know thats not what it should be) ...
so i drive around and mash the medal down once, it knocks a little but kinda goes. then I drive some more and do it again from a stop. the car revs really really really high 5645RPM and just kinda doesnt go anywhere...well its going, just not like i thought it should.
then i try one last time and this time after i look back i have white smoke all over the place, the car didnt knock but it was doing the "going nowhere fast" thing it did before.....
then i thought i broke it......looked and there was a leak prolly from the rear seal. i parked it.....came out 4 hours later, started it up...it leaked a little but stopped...the engine ran great, no weird noises, no milky oil, no smoke, everything just seemed to be fine
then i put it in drive and it just sat there, it usually starts to move by itself...then i gave it some gas and it finally started to move
so the car seems to run fine...a little more extra knock, but no smoke. the trans just seems extremely odd.....
gino thought it was something with the tourqe converter
what do all you think???
thanks much!
