Oxygen Sensor questions

RyDeFly · 01-25-2006, 03:05 AM

Like I said, the throttle is jacked up; its the assembly that runs along top of the engine near the firewall. The thing is way loose, so the cable is not retracted all the way, making the idle 2000-2500. I can pull it back with my hand and the idle will drop.

Once I engage the clutch, the rpms drop back down to what it should be, so driving it is not that hard... probably just stresful on the clutch though.

I'm pretty sure the mechanic said "fuel line", and he refered to "flushing it out" because of carbon deposits from it running rich for so long. BS then?

Also, maybe the "turbo hose" he was talking about is a vacuum line?

Thanks for you help guys.
