Finally got the OBD2 bluetooth adapter in. I didn't realize it would take a couple weeks to get here. Hopefully I set it up right. Fired it up this morning while waiting for my train, so I dont have any data while moving. The Torque app was registering the rpm's while in park. Did the Fault code check and got a: P0171 - Powertrain System too lean (Bank1) error.
OBD-II DTC: P0171 System Too Lean (Bank 1) most common problem with this code is a vac leak. get some carb cleaner and spray the lines while the car is running, if the idle jumps up, you found the leaking line.
Anyone have a diagram with the vacuum line locations pointed out?
Should be one under the hood right on the frame by the driver side headlight.
Really? Now why didn't I think of that? Damnit lol
If you can't find the vacuum leak something else to check that will set that code on some vehicles. Pull the intake tube off and see if the MAF screen has been removed. If it's not there or damaged sometimes it will set that same code.
I took off my MAF and TB and cleaned them both. I don't have any codes at the moment but I think I can hear a vacuum leak somewhere.
Thanks I'll try that
Ended up taking my car in for an oil change last week and told the mechanic about the possible vacuum leak. Also there is now an engine chirp or squeak that I thought might have been a belt except after you turn off the car the chirp lets out in a wheeze like its losing pressure. The mechanic thought it might have been a trans thing and brought the car to their "specialist" who tore the trans apart, put it together and found nothing. Now the theory is that its coming from the supercharger from which they found metal shavings in the oil. (supercharger oil not engine oil)
That is probably your radiator fans, mine chirp a little. The wheeze is probably a normal engine off sound, A/c system and whatnot.
I would pop your snout off and do the coupler now and give it an inspection.
As for what it has for mods, looks like stock struts, SSC lowering springs. Exhaust looks to be SLP catback. Definitely smaller pulley, OEM coils go for cheap (don't know what that guy was on about), $20/piece used.
Bump for: Anyone recognize the source of the squeakage in the video? Also Squeak seems considerably less loud with the A/C off.
Thanks.
Think I may start calling the car Squeaky. I shall call him Squeaky and he shall be mine. He shall be my Squeaky..
