Oil leak

Would a vacuum leak cause the car to die after idling fine for like 15 minutes?

Idle kinda bounces between high 600's and like low 900's when at temp. Idk how much of that is due to the cam

Hmm okay. Is DBW the newer style throttle body? Or is that something that only the older models had? Sorry, unfamiliar with the throttle boddies on the different model years

Yeah.. 04 plus was drive by wire aka motor controller that used a variable potentiometer setup on the gas pedal. Where yours is cable driven.
 


Alright. I wasnt't sure if the drive by wire was the newer one or older. I knew the newer GP's had electronic TB's because I drove an 08 and it had no throttle =o
But I'm no car pro either

i took a old end in with me to the store to match it up, then asked for a few scraps to make sure they fit tight. guys at advance were very cool.

if you have a advance auto by you they have the best T's i could find local, small white t's 2 per pack for 2 bucks, cant go wrong.

4 feet will be more then enough. id leave the plastic line from the under the snout to the map sensor if its ok, just change the end part with new vac line. like a inch or so.

same for the fat evap line off the front of the TB, those get hard and brittle from heat and crack. i used a fat hose long enough to loop over, then pushed another line inside the fat line to the hard line, cause the evap has a funky connector on the end of the plastic line. i didn't want to mess with it.

Should I get the cps for a 99 GTP or the 04 Impala? I assume they are probably interchangable?
