Afm questions

dieseltech24179 · 12-10-2008, 11:04 PM

I diagnosed the codes I know what to fix to fix the codes now it just starts up when it wants to. I think maybe there's an intermittant problem in my coil packs or would the afm cause it to start sometimes then not? Or could ignition timing be the problem here?

Yes, the AFM could cause those problems. Anyway The ignition timing I doubt is a problem because the computer automatically adjusts that.

Ok well I'm going to at least check my ignition timing when its running if it runs. I didn't know that an afm could possibly prevent my car from running sometimes and other times fire right up. I was also thinking maybe my coil packs are getting low resistance?? Maybe something in there could cause it not to start?? I'm just guessing there tho just in case I get an afm for it and it doesn't help it out. I want to drive it around and back and forth places but its got to start everytime first man its driving me crazy to see it just sitting there lol I hope this works
