Ok thanks,I'll check it out and go mess around with my car when it stops storming,
|
Ok when it first did what it did it was skipping like it was running out of gas,it had a quarter tank in it,waited a hr on a tow truck so while I was sitting there it cooled down and started but still got a tow,then after that sometimes it would start then times it wouldn't, so I'm not 100% sure if it fixed that part
Let me see if I have this right, the problem you are having now is the car runs, but the RPM is not working. The problem before is the car would die. Seems to me, if the car is running it is not CPS. When/if your car is running then die, then starts that does sound like a CPS. If I am hearing right, since you replace the CPS your have not had the dieing issue, maybe not long enough to say fix, but so far so good.
So your CPS may have been bad. Until it dies again, lets just say it was bad and now you fixed that issue. Assuming a bad CPS, when the old one was on and the car was running did the RPM work? Do you have access to someone who can read your ODBII while the engine is running, if so what does it's RPM say? I guessing that if the computer did not see any RPM you would get a code at best or it would shut down the engine thinking there is an issue. I wonder it you don't have a wire issue behind the dash? Bad Ground? Bad Gauge? Any other gauges with issues?
Does any of this sound right?
Nope before the rpm didn't work,the obd scanner shows rpm,but somebody soldered a while wire with black stripe coming out of the icm to 2 wires,and a paper clip shoved beside my baby blue wire,I think somewhere in there may be my rpm problem,I've had the car for a year and have never had problems,I don't think gm would solder wires like that do you?
My rpm seems to have power just no signal,when you turn any Grand Prix over but not crank the rpm bounces a hair,mine does or both of mine do
Remove balancer, use seal remover to remove old seal. Install new seal using old seal and a small hammer as a driver. Reinstall balancer.
May want to replace your ICM wiring harness that runs from the ICM to your crank and cam position sensor. Seen them cause all sorts of issues due to age and getting brittle/stiff with the wire inside having hich resistance
