This past weekend I used STP fuel injector cleaner(safe for o2 and cat)
at the same time I blew my rad(stupid plastic). The top fitting cracked
right off spraying coolant all over the engine compartment.....
I managed to get a used rad for $50.00 cdn.(free in USA)...
Since all this on Sunday I have been experiencing a loss of power when
I am at 70 to 90 MPH and try to accelerate(live in Toronto have to drive high speed to survive)to pass.... If I ease up on the throttle my power
returns..This problem is periodic and seems to happen after driving
35 miles or so all highway....
One more thing when I was checking for cracked vacuum lines I placed my
hand under the intake to check to see if the flame trap was seated
correctly and I hit the Wires around the cold start injector..this caused
the engine idle to increase dramatically had to keep wigling my hand around until the idle slowed down. I do not have a tac to see if the idle
has returned to 900 RPM.. not sure if it every was ... seems to still
be high even after closing the idle adjust screw all the way...
Any comments are appreciated
Thanks to all in advance.....
SPECS... B23F LH 2.0 212K miles
