#304066 It idles fine. First gear seems to be the worst it only goes about five to ten mph. The other day I adjusted the throttle cable because the rpm was bouncing when I was sit at a light. I took it out today and drove it about an hour and this happen. Could it be my TPS? If so how do I adjust it? I'm going to check the plugs, filter, tomorrow. What else can I check?

#304168 might check trans fluid just to see the condition. remember if its fuel that you can have fuel pressure that is within specs but be lacking in volume.

#304199 okay I took my plugs out and there is oil on all of the plugs and my oil is low. so I guess I have bad ring seals? what are the signs of a cracked head?

#304313 Okay I replaced all of the spark plugs and double checked the valve gasket. Also I reset the tsp by letting the car idle and removing the electric plugs,turned off the car and removed cable from the battery. What else can I do or check?

#304566 when I remove the TPS the car stops running, is this normal? I also checked all of the vacuum lines, I removed the fuel pump checked all those lines. what else can I check? is there a way I can check if my injector are working?
