What should my gas mileage be after replacing PCV valve?
What should my gas mileage be after replacing PCV valve?
A mechanic suggested replacing the pcv valve with one from the dealer. It helped a lot, but gas mileage is the most affected. I used to consistently pull 34-38 mpg. Now, 29 around the city and 33 highway. I always check mileage after I change a part to see if it did anything.
What causes the RPM to go up or down?
While cruising at any given speed, I will come to a stop sign or red light or a situation that causes me to take my foot off the gas. The idle will stay at whatever the cruising idle was for about 2 seconds, then increase a couple hundred RPMs, then come down to the normal RPM.
Why does my car not accelerate when I press the gas pedal?
This sensor sends a reference voltage to your power-train control module, which uses that to determine ignition timing and fuel trims. If the power-train control module is not detecting the proper signal from the throttle position sensor, the engine may not accelerate properly.
Why is my Chevy Cavalier running out of gas?
I forgot it running, it ran out of gas and sat until the battery went dead with the key in the “on” position. Now it won’t start. Security light, check gauges and service lights all stay on. Gas gauge doesn’t register any gas (I put 4 gallons in). Very little gas pressure. Has power to the ICM. No power to fuel pump. Any ideas? Thanks.
What’s the problem with my Chevy Cavalier Rs?
I have a 91 Chevy Cavalier RS, 2.2 L. Recently, I’ve noticed an intermittent problem when starting the car (both cold start and warm start). I thought at first it might have been the key, because the keys we had were cheap, badly made Wal-Mart copies so we had a locksmith make an exact replica from the manufacturer’s guide he had.
Why does my Chevy Cavalier stall at 70 mph?
This week on I-84 at 70 mph, car dies. Was able to coast of an exit ramp. Pulled over, opened the hood, shook the connector, it started right up. Drove it the rest of the week with no issue. Can’t figure out what the deal is, but it is either a connection in the harness, or one of the wires is loose, but it is near impossible to tell.
