ok i sprayed down the throttle body with a cleaner and wiped it as well.as far as the egr valve its pretty hard to get to even after i take out the battery and filter.still wants to die when i turn it on and it does unless i give it a bit of gas..im starting to get a bit frustrated but i know im...

well today im gonna remove and clean the iac then reset and see waht happens.and im gonin to inspect for leaks

if it wasnt your egr what was it?..and i cant find anything on cleaning iac or egr? And as far as ive read..to reset the ecu you unplug the ground\negative and hold the brake for like two minutes then wait a few more before plugging it back in is this true.

yea hopefully after i gap the plugs and clean the iac the misfire goes away..do you think thats something i can do myself im no dummie with a good how-to im sure i can pull it off but if it not that then on to the egr and maf it is. And im not sure how to reset the ecu but ill google that now...

i havnt drove it much just from parking spot to the garage in the back.bear with me here i dont know how to "gap" the plugs or reset the ecu sorry ill try the search bar there now tho

changed the plugs,coils,and cables and still same thing it just feels like it wants to turn off it idles at around 500.how exactly do you clean the iac?

yes actually i just did its now just giving me P0300: multiple cylinder misfire and P0505: idle air control system malfunction an it just feel real weak an just sitting still while its idling it just kind of shakes a bit and stays below 1k rpm

lol yea shane the plate that covers it is a little rusted on the corner..i had already had the ecu taken out ready to replace but a gut feeling told me not to..anyways when i tried to start it and it would jus keep turnin the ecu wasnt put back properly..just a quick plug n play lol he doesnt...

yea like i said before this mechanic swears its that beacause it jus fires random codes at him and says cannot connect to something or other

yea its an auto i kind of forgot to mention that...i really dont want to have to replace the ecu :(

thanks dude! ill give that a try tomorrow,i already left the garage

Sorry bro i thought i read passenger lol but no none in the drivers side either bazooka joe good lookin out man im doing that now

Yea shane it just cranks freely,and i didnt see any rust at all even on plate that covers it and checking the alarm is a great idea im gonna look into that now thanks!

lol my fault i figured the diamonds are called canary so..and does that happen if you disconnect the battery any kind of way?But im getting a new battery tomorrow well see what happens!..Got my fingers crossed. I hate to say it but if that doesnt work where should i go from there ignition...
