  1. Too Cool
    J.W. got a reaction from OhareFred in High idle + misfire + random codes   
    Thanks OhareFred. I knew it needed an injector and didnt notice the signs of it being in an accident till a few days after purchase. What I think could be a bad wreck, could be a failed attempt to remedy terrible paint peel (minus the ding in the rear). I paid $1700 and figured I could get rid of it for $2400 pretty easy. So far I $80 in it. Being optimistic that I'll find a short or bad ground that magically fixes everything.

    JW, just so I got this right:  You bought a car you knew was wrecked, didn’t get a CarFax report before you plunked down your money to see how bad, knew it needed work and is at least 10 years old (I got my 09 in July of 08) and expected to make money on reselling it?  Seems pretty optimistic.
    That being said, my has been far from problem free, but I purchased a lifetime warranty AND got the free lifetime power train warranty because I’m the original owner.
     
    OK, none of that bullshit helps you.  Check the negative battery cable.  The sensor at the end corrodes and fails.  Check the voltage at the jump terminals, see what you have.  Anything less than 13+, start looking at the battery.  Also, there has been occurrences of the HF Module draining the battery.  Try removing fuse 131 in the fuse box on the passenger side fuse box.  Good luck!
