  • A few questions

    Hi, I'm not really great at understanding repairs and such, but I love my car and want to help it in any way possible.

    I have a 89 camaro RS 2.8 everything stock except exhaust with 114,000 miles. Service engine soon light was on so I got it checked out here's the codes:
    22 throttle position sensor to low
    42 electronic spark timing problem
    34 MAF sensor or circuit too low

    I want to have my friend fix these problems (I'm a poor college student and shop just cost too much) but before I go replacing all these parts I have some questions:

    What is an EST problem, what needs to be replaced, is it serious.

    Does the throttle position sensor and the MAF sensor effect eachother, if I replace one will it fix the other, or do they both need to be replaced?

    I've looked online for answers to these questions but I haven't gotten much luck. So any advice would help!!

    Re: A few questions

    Might get blldogg to help you but the throttle position sensor and MAF should have no affect on each other. EST just means your timing is off and you need to re-do that. Those all sound like fairly easy to fix
