91loyale420 Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 My 1991 Loyale is having some starting up issues. It will start for about 6-10 seconds, during that time it doesn't stay at a constant idle and if I give a little gas to it she won't rev either very high like past 3000rpm if she revs at all without just dying. I have a new Fuel Filter, Rotor, Distributor Cap, and new plug wires ( I just put new plugs in it ) and I am wondering if these are what I need or what else could it be.

Uberoo Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 sounds like your timing belt jumped a tooth.try pulling the covers off and then check to make sure that the marks on the cam sprockets all line up to where they are supposed to.

MilesFox Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Is this an all of a sudden occurrence? temperature related(cold outside?) has the car been doing this or gradually getting worse? I would point to the temp sensor, as it will affect how the car runs when cold, or as it warms up another thing to look for, is under the hood, on the driver side firewall, you will find a pair of green connectors and a pair of white connectors. these are to be UNPLUGGED. the white ones are for pulling engine codes, and the green ones are for setting the ignition timing. if they are plugged in, the timing curve will not advance.
