  1. i'll try to get on ASAP. went to an auto parts location and they said that they'll order one for me. i cant afford lower MPGs, here in bze the cost per gallon is 10bucks (5USD)
  2. hey guys. have an update for u geniuses there is a problem with my brake booster. i need to change that (just waiting for the part now) grimgreg u were right. i checked and double-checked and it was cracked. i had to disconnect it to check it properly. there's no where i can get one right now, but what i did was to tape it, then band it with a rubber tube. finally, i found the o2 connector and unplugged it. Nige u're a good guide. it runs so much better. now, are there any negative impacts for having the o2 unplugged? thanks as always
  3. thank you B. i'll take one of my wife's hair spray and run that check. i was trying to do the diag test yesterday, but couldnt. i'll try again today (need more practice). also, i was reading more on this o2 sensor saying that if unplugged it will help in situations like this. where is the connection located under the hood. i found the connection to the exhaust but its difficult to follow the wires up. boneZ, the tube is intact.
  4. hey guys, it's terrible. my pathy was recently involved in a head on collision (wasn't that terrible) but since then i've been having all sort of problems. the damage was cosmetic but now i'm only getting 10 miles per gallon (from 20) when i brake it loses power and shuts down. when accelerating, it sputters, has no power and the rpm goes from 1K to 2.5K. also i can hear some backfire under the hood (driver's side). please help so far, i've changed spark plugs and wires, fuel and air filter, cleaned the maf. fuel pressure is good too, so its not a fuel pump issue. but everything to no avail. thank you all for your time
  5. why3zx i am flooring it while cranking it. this is the only way it will start. i do try to fire it up before touching the pedal. ty
  6. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP!!!!! my day off is coming soon. i'll keep you guys posted!
  7. first of all, i would like to thank WheatBread for referring me to this site. i recently became the proud owner of a 1990 pathy, silver, auto, 2wd, but there are 2 things that are bothering me. pls help! the first, it wont start in the mornings. it is necessary for me to step on the gas inorder for it to start. after it warmns up, then the problem is gone; its fires up right away. what can cause this problem? secondly, the D is the only gear light that doesnt light up 100%. similarly, the fuel gauge works on and off. all fuses and wiring that goes to the dash have been checked, but nada. finally, is there anyway you guys can provide an owner's manual for my '90 pathy? THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME jcp
