Saw some info you posted on barometric pressure readings in our map sensor. I?m having an issue that I can?t figure out. That key on my car Reed?s correct barometric pressure at 14.3 which is exactly what it is today. As soon as I get on the throttle and hit roughly 9 pounds of boost, the barometric pressure sensor changes quickly to 15.0 to 15.2. Obviously I haven?t changed altitude or weather pattern. I?m sure this is causing havoc on fueling once I?m WOT. Any idea?
Just wanted to say that i have a ton of new parts in it. Map,maf,fuel pump,fuel pressure regulator, crank sensor, icm,coil packs, and I still have this issue where DIC is showing 5lbs of boost while not even on the gas and the fuel trims go negative and than it shuts off and will struggle to start back up for a couple minutes. I was going to change PCM but thought I would try to talk to you about it since I saw your thread about having the same issue but never saw a post about what actually fixed it. (Also I have checked pcm grounds and they are all good)
It's an old thread l found about the shift kit and transmission cooler,
But you're not in "the loop".
That's why they didn't make it a stickey.
I found they are real click-ish over here, I've added what I felt was good information to a thread nobody ever says nothing. Every once in awhile another guy that's not in the loop will answer one of my threads but that's about it. Thanks for the Post that's a good thread I'm going to try it on my car.
Like you mentioned I'm not having any other problems except the bit of a long shift after it's warm and then the shifts get a little bit hard not real bad or anything.
In case you don't go back to the thread I guess either one of those transmission coolers linked on page seven of the thread would be sufficient for our cars? I have an 01 Grand Prix SE also. It only has 107,500 miles on it.
Hey man this definitely helps thanks alot!
So I did already get one of those block test kits from Amazon, and checked for the combustion gases from the radiator and I was all clear! I still worry I even did the test correct though..but I'm pretty sure I did. Will probably do another one soon just to be sure.
As for the leak, I still haven't found it so I guess I'll order the dye and uv light. I have a feeling it's my lower intake manifold though. It does seem to be rather gunked up with oil/possibly coolant. Do you think that could be the cause of the small leak? I already have all the gaskets so gonna start that job soon too. How important is it to chase down this small leak and get it fixed? Like I said I never overheated before.
Today I noticed my upper and lower hoses collapsed after idling for a bit and turning engine off...and found out my radiator cap was broken so I'm thinking that's why my reservoir over-flowed before?
