I did it!!!!! Not coolant issue, nor maf, or 02 sensor! Car had a little fire about a year ago: header touching power steering line informs you very quickly that it's a flammable liquid
. I found a bunch of wires (5) that had been burned to a crisp and lost their housing. After separating all wires and re-wrapping in shrink wrap...it drives smoother than ever! I done even have a cel anymore due to my cai! Cleaning maf, all tubing and throttle body does work for dirty induction cel. What did I gain from all this diagnosing???
1. Radior isn't hard to replace. It's a fairly easy and very straight forward DIY.
2. Refilling coolant isn't as hard as I thought it to be, when I figured out that it wasn't the problem. Pedrosgarage.com is great for burping instructions.
3. Fire in engine compartment is bad.
3.5 burnt wires cause electrical issues.
4. I am confident I can fix ANYTHING...well that egotistical statement should wear off very soon.......
****************, my computer optical mouse stopped working...well, sooner than expected.
Happy motoring!
