I'm pretty sure that my fuel injectors are going out because at idle in gear, it will sputter and die. Otherwise it runs fine. However, the temp gauge will take a long time to warm up (all while my heater is blasting cold air) and when it does, it goes to the top of the gauge, then falls rapidly. Today (it just got warm out) it was juat hanging out at the top of the meter. I just replaced the thermostat a month ago, and it isn't one of the high temp ones either. My sensor maybe? It is strange that both my idle problem and my temp problem happen at the same time.

Suggestions?Krypt

yeah I think you're on the right path. having the heater going on cold won't really do anything for engine warm up times though.

Well, I figured out the coolent problem. I have a leak that only leaks when up to pressure. It would drain while driving. I filled it, not a huge problem for now. The fuel injectors are good, but I only checked the resistance on them. They are all at about 12ohms. I cannot find the IACV. The manual says at the end of the cylinder head, but I guess I'm an idiot. The is at least nothing with vacuum lines on it.

Help please.Krypt
