bgd73 Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Last night on a 250mile round trip in my 93 loyale something bizarre started happening. I already posted about my 5 speed tranny acting like the same gears at same rpms would be just an engine thumping harder and gaining speed the whole time, with no rpm change(not clutch slip). 5th gear at 3000 is passing just about everbody on the highway. 4000 rpm is "holy crap, adjust the elevator trim" But anyway to my question about the spfi: I get an incredible air noise that is seemingly allowing the car to accelerate at low rpms and i can hit over 6500rpm (oem ea82) . This just started happening, and I dont know what I blew out of it, spfi related. Is it possible that the air bypass is stuck open and fuel metering was accomplished anyway by the ecm? Another factor was the fuel consumption was high. It still idles great, ruled out perfect vacuum leak (by perfect i mean some vacuum leaks create power, which is what may be happening in spfi someplace). I hope I explained this enough, a ride before and after in my car would put a frown on most faces :-\ I dont even know where to begin. Also when i let off the gas there is a whistle like a turbo blowoff that never ends, louder than the acceleration hissing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgd73 Posted March 19, 2006 Author Share Posted March 19, 2006 just another air leak. The rubber part of intake from spfi to air filter housing was annhilated, i dont know what kind of chemical would do that, but it developed more splits and cracks and holes even after i put my own fix in it. Leak was just right to keep getting metered corrrectly. Ahhh, a bit of silicone and back to granny mobile Anybody's rubber intake do the same? I wondered if 25f below zero could cause it too.
