I believe that there is an unfortunate choice of a word in this bill. The term "baiting" in this context clearly is meant to mean persecute or harass and entice into fighting, as in "baiting a bear". It does NOT mean to set out a bait as an attractant. I'm sure that if the bill ...

Thanks Again Ray. I priced out some Code readers, but the cheapest one I found was $199. I called the mechanic back; he only wanted $40 to check it. So I dropped it off. 2 problems. 1) Gas Has Been Evaporating 2) Cylinders have been Misfiring 1) He asked if I have left the fuel cap off recently. I h...

New update. I picked the car up from being cleaned. They Cleaned, Vacuumed, and De-greased the Intake Manifold + Throttle body. I then took it to Mr. Lube who did I multi point inspection. In addition to getting the oil change (+ Engine Flush) I also got the Fuel Filter changed. They said it looked ...

I'm at school; so I can't do too much. but I am on a 2 hour break (10-12), and have a socket set, and screw drivers in the car. I went out, and figured I'd take a look into the Air filter..... just to look.... It was FILTHY. dirt, grime, liquids, and solids. I was prying it out; and the end of the a...

Correct, however, you may find that the RPM's will drop to 500RPM after doing the 1000RPM part, so be prepared. Good luck! It wouldn't hurt to trickle charge the battery anyways, if you have access to a 12v 2amp charger. Whats trickle charge? - just connecting it to the battery charger? We have a c...

Ok... so the plan.

1) disconnect battery for 30 mins.
2) reconnect battery
3) start car
4) rev to 1000RPM for 1 minute
5) allow to drop to 600 RPM (no action needed, since the car idles around 600)
6) drive for 10 mins
7) cross my fingers

Correct?

Looking back I recall mine started doing the symptoms you are describing after the battery was ran dead thanks to my kids.. Did you by any chance have a dead battery recently? That can create havoc with those computers, And I have no doubt this is a computer related issue. Try disconnecting the bat...
