Why does my truck idle but no power on acceleration?
The EGR valve tested correctly and wasn’t replaced. When I start the truck (starts easily) it will idle at around 1000-1100 RPM for a about 30 seconds and then drops to about 600 and then to 500 and then stalls. It will staying running if the accelerator is pressed but it is weak during acceleration.
When does a Chevy Silverado have no power?
If you put it to the floor, it won’t rev beyond 4000 RPM. At ~2500 RPM with only enough throttle to maintain speed (transmission manually shifted to 3rd gear), it will surge and hunt. In OD at 55 mph (engine speed below 2000), it runs smoothly but has no power to run up hill or into a head wind.
How can you tell if a GM Truck is clogged?
To check the cat, hook up a vacuum gauge to the intake manifold. Take a reading at idle. Lets say it’s 20. Then take a reading at a steady 1500 rpm, then again at a steady 3000 rpm. If the vacuum drops more than a point or so at the higher rpm’s then the cat is clogged.
What makes a truck not go over thirty mph?
Truck will not go over thirty mph. The fuel cuts out and starts to sputter at 2000 rpm all the way to 3000 rpm. I have changed plugs, MAP, TPS, IAT, crank sensors, wires, cool pack, cool mod, fuel pressure, fuel pump, crank, timing gears and chain ECM/ECU.
Is the engine idles fine but no power on acceleration?
This is for a 1995 chevy s10, 2.2L four cyclinder, automatic and regular body style with approximately 170 K miles. After every long trip I have to top off the engine oil. Now, I smell burnt oil and it loses power when driving and also idles rough. Also, on your conclusion, what would be a estimate ( by average ) for repairs. helpful?
What causes idle surges on a car ECM?
Idle surging can be caused due to other issues in the car, but if it happens in conjunction with other throttle position sensor symptoms, the culprit is often the TPS. At idle, the ECM will not get the correct information and the throttle will variate randomly causing idle surges.
What causes the Check Engine light to turn off at idle?
At idle, the ECM will not get the correct information and the throttle will variate randomly causing idle surges. The check engine light will randomly turn on and off even if the car is running smoothly without any jerks and stalling.
What should idle speed be on Chevy Blazer?
My first test would be with a vacume gauge. If the vacume is good it should hold between 25 and 29 at idle. May be a little low cause of the rough idle, but what your looking for Is for it to drop slowly to well below specs. This checks the catalyst converter it could be clogged.
