Procedure

  1. Check air cleaner. If air cleaner is dirty, replace air cleaner. If air cleaner is okay, go to next step.
  2. Check oil cap and oil dipstick installation. If problem exists, repair as necessary. If problem does not exist, go to next step.
  3. Check intake tube, breather hose and MAF sensor for air leaks. If problem exists, repair as necessary. If problem does not exist, go to next step. CAUTION: DO NOT spray carburetor cleaner on or near coils or plug wires. Allow enough time between checking areas for leaks for carburetor spray to dissipate.
  4. Backprobe and measure voltage between front Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) connector terminal No. 4 (Green/Brown wire) and ground. see scheme 8 Start engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature. With engine idling, spray short spurts of aerosol carburetor cleaner into following areas while observing voltage changes at Green/Brown wire: Throttle body gasket. Gasket between intake manifold and cylinder head. Gasket between intake manifold and surge tank. Seals between intake manifold and fuel injectors. Seal between surge tank and PCV pipe. A long rise in voltage that corresponds to approximate timing and duration of spray of carburetor cleaner indicates air leak in area sprayed. If leak is indicated, repair as necessary. If leak is not indicated, go to next step.
  5. Check MAF sensor for contamination, deterioration or damage. If MAF sensor is okay, go to next step. If MAF sensor is contaminated, clean with aerosol brake cleaner and let air dry. Check air cleaner and housing for source of leak and repair as necessary. If MAF sensor is damaged or deteriorated, replace MAF sensor.
