update on my car stalling situation... 900

posted by  someone claiming to be xallenx on  Sun Nov 23 13:54 CST 2003 [RELATED]

hey guys,


So this is what i found out today under limited time...first i did the diagnostic codes and it spitted code 231 and on the FAQ it said if too lean air leaks, low fuel pressure or bad sensor...anyone ever had this code if so what did you do to fix this problem...also it said on the FAQ that it should light up the check engine light whenever you get this code..but mine didn't light up?
Second, i did the limp mode test..i disconnected the AMM and started the car..the car started right up but the engine was sputtering plus it gave me a check engine light..the car didn't stall. i turned it off and reconnected the AMM..started the car and it started right up and the rpm held steady at 750RPM. So, does this mean that my AMM is good?
Third, I checked the Fuel pump relay..i placed my hand on top of the relay and to see if it clicks everytime i tune the car ON (without starting it) and it clicked..which means the relay is good..right?
Fourth, I disconnected the radio sup. relay on the passenger side while the car was running..nothing happened..i turned off the car and disconnected the other relay located behind the power steering resovoir..tried to start the car and it wouldn't start it just kept on spinning..so i hooked the relay back up and the car started right up..so this means the radio sup. relay is good..right?
So there it is ...this where the only components i ended up checking today due to time restraint...will do the others tom..any opinions?
