backfiring/hesitation/cuttin out
i have a 94 yota and when i drive it, it backfires and doesn't want to go. i had it in 2nd gear the other day floored and i was only doin 20mph. sometimes it smells rich and it idles really funny. ive already done a new tune up and changed the fuel filter and tried a new maf. could be my valves 2 tight or somethin with fuel? help me out plz.

Any engine codes?
|
no it don't
|
have you checked your AFM? i had mine go out on me last week and it was doing alot of the same things you have described.
my dads friend who is a mechanic showed me an easy way to check them. just pop open the air box while its idling and use your finger to push open the flapper. the truck should stall out right away. if it doesnt stall and keeps running then something is wrong with it and you should replace it. |
Timing is way off? Did you have the distributor out recently?
|
if its fuel injected it could be injector problems
|
any updates?
|
seafoam!
|
ill check those. how do i tell if my injectors are bad? its not my timin ive set it twice. thanks for the tips if yall think of ne thing else hit me up.
|
pull your trouble codes. if it's running that bad, you've probably thrown at least one
-but based on the 411 above igniter. |
Maybe 1 or both of the o2 sensors? I don't know if the '94 had 2 or not. Just kind of a thought.
|
well the other day i cranked my truck and it died n i seen smoke comin out of the mafs. it smelled just like gas, ne body kno what that cld b?
|
you said you recently did a tune up. Are you sure your firing order is correct?
|
you might have a vacume leak....in the intake manifold

check to make sure you sparks are plugged into the correct part of the distributor, what I would do is remove you distributor cap and make sure there is no moisture and take all the wires and makes sure they are plugged in correctly.

Aloha from Hawaii. Did you ever figure out your backfire issue? I got a 94 3.0 with a bad backfire (or after fire) when decelerating, it's so loud it sounds like a gunshot...I deleted my cat and just got a new walker sound fx muffler (it's what the truck had when I bought it), but I notice some leaking exhaust in my exhaust pipe (rusted holes) leading up to my muffler. Could this cause the backfire? Thank you for any help.
