Well, I decided to go to Aaron's anyway... You guys are going to hate me, but Jose checked my timing, and it was WAY off, according to him it was closer to 20 degrees advanced than it was to 10. I have no idea how that happened...I think it's time for me to invest in a timing light. He set...

That's some major rod knock you have there.

Maybe I have my meter set wrong when I am testing for cross-counts? I have the dial set to 200, the decimal looks like this: 0.00...is that right? I am thinking this could be a wiring problem? I really want to get this new problem fixed as well as the misfire problem. :) Also, something...

Ah, I see that now. Makes sense. Well, I covered the intake with a plastic bag, and at idle, it stayed at 4.9 (it says 4.9 when the engine is not running, btw)...0.00V as soon as I raise the RPMs, even slightly. Then once I let it return to idle, it will return to 4.9 after a couple of...

I am using a Centech (sp)? digital multi-meter.

I unplugged the o2 sensor, but the TCCS did not throw a code. :icon_conf Also, I HAVE been testing for crosscounting off idle, btw. I will be taking the car to diftmotion (bigaaron) tomorrow...so I'll post up what he finds.

Zaino?

I tried a new o2 sensor (free exchange) and the problem is exactly the same. 3p, I will try what you suggested tomorrow. :)

ooo-A-go

You're using a lot of the battery's power everytime you start the car, and since you just let it sit and idle for a short period of time...it never recharges fully...so if you keep doing that, it WILL eventually die. You don't need to run the car all the time, BTW.

LMAO!

:(...I think I will try another o2 sensor...

Ok, I'm not sure if i did it right, but I set my meter to 200m, un-jumpered TE and E, and connected the negative probe to E, and the positive to OX1 (there is no OX2 terminal), and it just stays at 29.9-30.1 mV...at idle or at 2500, it doesn't really change.

Measure OX1 or OX2? Do you mean connect the negative probe to E and positive to OX1? Do this with TE and E jumpered?

Just did that. Stays at 0.00 the whole time, and as soon as I let off the throttle, it goes straight to 4.9. Bosch oxygen sensor is less than a month old, btw. Still no codes.

Okay, I have my laptop out by my car and just did this: 1)No codes. 2) With T and E jumpered, @ idle it says 4.9V, and as soon as i touch the throttle at all, it goes straight to 0.00, then once I let it return to idle, it goes back to 4.9. 3)T and E not jumpered, it goes between 2.2 and 3.5V.

LOL. That's a good one.

jdub: I am using Denso spark plugs gapped at .026, and MSD 8.5mm wires. I heard them all snap into place when I installed them. 3p: I've never done that test before...If I'm understanding those links correctly, do i have to jumper the diagnostic terminals (Te1 and E1), and with those...

jeez, how could she RAPE someone?? She's 84 years old, wouldn't the wind knock her down?

Well, my car is now having a misfire problem! :D I thought this would be the best thread to ask in... So my problem is a lot like toml's, but my car misfires when warm, when the engine is cold, it runs perfectly, like nothing is wrong, very smooth, no misfiring. However, once the car has...
