Today I gutted my cat now the car wont idle. It drives fine. Yesterday the cat got blocked up and pushed exhaust throught the EGR valve and back out the intake THROUGH the filter. I think I might have fried the O2's. Would that be the problem?

Re: no idle
they shouldnt Fry that fast did you make sure u dont have any Vacuum leaks or anything , if you unplugged stuff during the working on it make sure everythings plugged back in -
Re: no idle
i had this problem when i changed my o2s, the auto parts gave me the wrong ones, the car would run fine, but would nearly die at idle. But i also had the SES light on saying check o2's. Do you have an SES light no?<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2245261\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2245261</a> Green 1997, 105k, all stock except for Z28 front springs, Air shocks in the rear, home made coolant recovery tank, home made battery hold down.Comment

Re: no idle
If you were blowing exhaust and crap out of the filter I think that I would be concerned about the conditon of the MAF. Maybe it's been contaminated or damaged, which could be the origin of your SES.Now Playing: \'99 Pewter Firebird, stock, bone stock, and nothing but stock, so help me God!<br />Comming attractions: K&N Filter, Lid Mod, Intake Bellows Smooth Pipe Mod.<br />I dream about: Forced Induction (TC or SC) or NOX (or both!)Comment

Re: no idle
I changed the map sensor and its still ****ing up and throw that code. The dealer said it might be the wiring to the map or the PCM. ****ing ****.1995 Patriot Red T-Topped Z28 A4<br /><br />Mystery rebuild in progress.<br /><br />Soon to have 383 ways to beat KBreezy and Shane. :DComment

Re: no idle
just when you thought the lt1 was a pain in the @ss..
CDNFB- 3.4s dont have MAFS. theyre speed density cars.
rant/
also... why is it every dealership blames everything on the pcm? everytime i see a thread like this where someone goes to a dealership, thats the first thing they blame. they did the same thing with my moms 02 malibu. they kept telling her it was the computer... and it never was./rant
pull the 02s and see what they look like. but i doubt thats the problem. id check small crap first. pcv or egr valve maybe? just throwing ideas out there for ya. good luck with it though.Last edited by vanbibber; 05-19-2006, 05:20 PM.
