I’m experiencing rough idle and misfire problems with my 97 VDP.
I’ve been reading the postings for similar issues and many talk
about checking MAF and O2 sensor readings but none that I’ve found
describe what the numbers should be. I have an autoenginuity scan
tool but I’m very much a novice with it at this point. I just took
some readings at various rpms under load (trany in drive while
holding brakes) any I’m hoping someone can help interpret the data:
Fuel Trim:
B1S1 = 0 (no change with rpm)
B2S1 = 99.06 (number displayed in red and no change with rpm)
B1S2 = 24.18 (changes as throttle position changes then settles
back to this)
B2S2 = -24.96 (changes as throttle position changes then settles
back to this)
MAF (lb/min), no load:
0.01 @ 700rpm
0.02 @ 1500rpm
0.03 @ 2300rpm
0.04 @ 3400rpm
A few more notes:
-
I managed to make the beginner mistake of swapping the secondary
O2 sensor cables so I read a number of the postings regarding the
‘‘oxygen Sensor Orientation’’ procedure. From that info I concluded
that since my scanner says I’m running in closed-loop mode, that
procedure would not help this condition. Perhaps that is not a
correct assumption? -
One other observation is that if I unplug the temp sensor, the
rough idle goes away and the engine runs well until I reach
highway speeds of about 55mph or greater. Then it will misfire
intermittantly and sometimes, heavily.–
