Alright 6gc, I tried using the search, and really couldn't find anything.
My celica is acting really weird. Whenever I drive it, the revs randomly rise and fall really speradically. Its really inconsistant, and when they go up and down, the whoel car jerks, almost like when someone is lerning to drive 5 speed. At first I thought it was my clutch slipping on the flywheel, but then my dad checked it out and thought it seemed for electrical. Then my buddy checked it ou and said it was my distributor and that I should change my cap and rotor. So I changed my cap and rotor, and its still got the problem. I really don't know what to do, its my daily driver, and its to the point where it barely drives becasue I don't want to damage anything else. I took a video on my phone, to give you a better idea of what its doing, I know its real bad quality, but hopefully it'll help.

Azian, are you referring to the high idle(3000) that I just referred to in another thread that was caused by spraying the carb cleaner in?
If so, the idle has dropped back down and idles around 1000k. But when this "odd reving" isue occurs, at idle, it will jump around a couple RPM(mayb 100 or so?) and when you pop the hood, you can see the motor moving around when the rpm drops, but when it is steady, the motor doesn't move at all(hopefully that makes sense). So you think i should pull the vaccum lines off one by one, and cap it off, and if having one of the lines off and capped, the problem stops, then that hose probably has a hole in it? Someone earlier thought it may have been egr, but then someone else posted in this thread that it most likely isn't and that i shoudl be leaning towards the ECU or Dizzy like the CEL says. -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |
