this morning driving to work i noticed my engine (D16z6 with 100k miles) was idling VERY low. somewhere around 500-700rpm. when i would take off from the light driving normal it sounded/feels like the engines going to cut out. like somethings getting bogged down. shifting into 2nd gear, the same thing happens around 2000rpm's.
i recently got my fuel injectors cleaned, timing belt, clutch, water pump, resurfaced my flywheel and some other stuff that dosent really have to do with the engine. last night i also filled up with a full tank of shell gas, which ive been using for the last couple of years. ive been using 91 octane for the last 8 months, and synthetic oil every 2,500-3k miles. up till today, my engine has been running very strong and healthy. ive had some problems with my idling.. it jumps from 800-1300rpms in netural, esp when its cold. i popped the hood when i got home, and it smells like gas/oil mixture. or like a OLD SCHOOL car. you know that smell? really rich gas or old burned gas.. or somtehing i dont know. HeLP!!
whats wrong with my car? :cry:
