Blue smoke sounds like oil burning you probably have internal engine problems and should see a mechanic, you might try replacing your PCV valve, those are cheap and cause oil consumption problems, might cause some fuel problems. usually fuel in the engine oil indicates a fuel leak either injectors or carb which ever the car is equipped with the smoke indicates that exsessive cylinder wall or piston ring damage may have allready occured when oil is mixed with gas it looses its ability to lubricate
I was having the same problem. Had to change out fuel regulator and fuel injectors
may be the computer im having same problem second cylender is not firing and gas pooring into it ive done head gaskets and all only thing left is computer
The advantages of having dual exhaust, if it is a true dual exhaust, include increased gas mileage, cooler engine temperature, and more engine horsepower. However, if it is not a true dual exhaust, it doesn't matter how many exhaust ports there are, there will be no advantage.
by having a exhaust shop weld on a y pipe then just run the dual pipes out the back
Sounds like the catalatic converter is either pluging up or starting to fail. Either way if this is the problem it will either start having worse performance or just stop runing entirly. I had this same problem and it was a faulty fuel injector. Check to see if it is wet around any of your fuel injectors. I have a 1992 q45 I had the same problem i changed my back cats and it still did the same thing coul it be my front ones to I have a 1995 Mazda 626, I have a similar problem. It dies right at 15 seconds after I hit the gas and remain at 3500 RPM, and I can hardly get up a hill. I have already changed the fuel pump, the injectors were fine, the O2 sensors were fine, changed the air filter, no clogs in the fuel delivery system (yes changed the fuel filter too), changed the plugs and wires, changed the fuel regulator... the only thing left is the catalytic converter is plugged... it's as if my car has asthma, so I'm looking at the Throttle position sensor. Will keep you updated. I have this cutting out problem and i think Ive managed to diagnose mine to a faulty fuel pump as you can sometimes hear it activate but when you don't the car does not start. but anyway this is what i tried. fortunately my sister has same cars as me, maybe some of these will help you diagnose your problem. - throttle position sensor - crankshaft sensor. - camshaft sensor - fuel pump fuse/relay - lambda sensor - Cat could be broken up and blocked exhaust system causing poor flow.
Where your main intake hose connects to the top of the engine from the air filter box. That is called your upper intake manifold. The injectors are under there. I have removed the upper intake many times because of having to replace injectors on those style trucks. The Oem injectors from the factory are crap.
The voltage regulator on a 1989 Chevy Camaro is inside of the alternator. If you are having issues, such as flickering lights, you might have to replace the entire alternator.
well it has changed by having new shops.
I'm having problems with the voltage regulator.
i have a 1999 having same prob. need info myself . everything checks out good with ststor even replaced regulator. still having same prob.
I haven't changed injectors on the 2.4 engine, but I have changed them on a Sunfire 2.2. I'm pretty sure that they are similar. What helped me, was having my Haynes manual for the car. I suggest that you pick one up. The job is fairly direct and shouldn't take too long, once you get a grip on what's going on. FriPilot
Try a can of Seafoam Engine Tune. It will sometimes work wonders on clogged injectors. www.seafoamsales.com
