Last summer my idle started going from 400 to 1,000 up and down and the car kept dying. I left it at a shop for 30 days and he said replaced the MAF.
He tried other computers and said the ECU was fine.
The engine light came on days later with the codes for Leaking injector and EGR.
The mechanic said I should ground the MAF to the engine as he thinks that causes the Leaking injector code number.
As for the EGR--he said it might be the temperature sensor for it. Or it may be sticking.
Now my car is ok sometimes and suddenly it won't idle.
Would a stuck EGR do this? Or the temp sender? Or the MAF went bad?
Help.....I don't know what to do.
I checked the plug wires which are a bit too long and found once in awhile; 1 plug wire would pull up a little inside the distributor cap.
Could this be the problem?
