Can a bad air sensor cause a car to backfire?
Bad air sensor results in car backfiring. Each car has an on-board computer which inspects and collects data on the air entering the engine constantly. All this process is done through the mass air flow sensor. The on-board computer will get the incorrect readings if there are some problems with the sensor, which will happen when the sensor cokes.
Why does my car Jerk when I Turn on the a / C?
When I turn on the A/C in my car, it jerks (particularly, when I am stopped at red lights). Why is this? I just had my alternator replaced and the mechanic told me my battery tested as weak.
What causes a car to backfire when under load?
The valve is the passageway for air to enter the system when the engine is under load. When it’s malfunctioning, it releases air into the combustion chamber even at the time of de-acceleration. It creates the ignition of unburnt fuel and causes a car backfire.
Why does my car shake when the AC is on?
When the AC is turned on it puts a load on the engine. The IAC valve is supposed to bump the idle speed up to compensate for this extra load put on the engine. If the IAC valve fails to go to the proper position for this extra load on the engine, the engine will shake and jerk while stopped and idling.
