P0170 97 GST
i am having problems with my 97 Eclipse GST I have the code P0170 that keeps coming up and It is a new O2 sensor. My car idles weird when it is cold and it idles up and down . once it is warm it works a little better but when it is at idle my air/fuel gauge reads lean lean lean and it will randomly smoke out the back ..... smell rich . When i am driving it seems normal . only at idle seems to be the problem .
Some help me please
What fuel pump & injectors are you running. Usually that code means the Short and or Long term fuel trims are too lean/rich to properly adjust. If you're on stock injectors/pump, then I would test the o2 sensor and wiring to it, especially if it's spliced.
you got bad air flow meeter...
I am running stock injectors and fuel pump but i have a t3/t4 turbo at 8 - 9 psi. I just got a new O2 sensor and everything seems to be right. I thought that it might be becasue i don't have a SAFC or anything
like i said get new afm...Originally Posted by arse232
How can you check to make sure that is what is wrong because if i buy one and that isn;t it that is a $700 mistake
$700?! I think you're better off just borrowing one from a local dsmer :P I'd let you use the one Savo gave me, but it's been gutted LOL.
I have one you can borrow or buy after you use it. Im located in SF tho so if your close your welcome to check it out.
With factory scan tool...look at your fuel trims it needs to be in single digits with (p0170-running lean) you will be at - single digits wich means bad air fuel mixture or verry small vacum leak and your O2 dont have $hit to do with p0170 :D
Ok Thanks for the help I'll see tomorrwo what i can do .... Would a 95 talon awd have the same AFS?
I would love to try yours but that can't happen since i am in NB canada lol but i do know a guy with a 95 talon
