Re: EGR Valve & O2 Sensor
Thanks. I was using the O2 socket to remove it and it was not budging. As for my EGR Valve, the pin the valve goes up and down so I am led to believe it is a vacuum leak. Is there any way to check for vacuum leaks without a tester? I dont have one ![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)

Re: Car Died/Wont Start
Timing was off. I guess the people who had the car before me, didnt do the timing correctly... We took everything apart, and redone the belt, and now it runs. Just dealing with sensors now. ![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
Thanks to all who helped on this issue!!
Greatly Appreciated!

EGR Valve & O2 Sensor
Good Morning All! My car was giving me error code 16, which is the EGR Valve. I replaced the EGR Valve, and I still get the same code. Is it possible that I have a vacuum leak, which could be why I still have the engine code for the EGR? Also, O2 sensor wont come out. Ive tried PB Buster, Used the p...

Re: Car Died/Wont Start
Ok Thanks. I am going to check all that. I know the previous owner of this car had the top half of the motor apart as all the bolts are finger tight.... What a mess.

Re: Car Died/Wont Start
Yep that has been done. I really need to check the timing though I think. Does anyone know what Im looking for under the motor to jack it up? Also, it almost seems like the air intake is not sucking air in... could be why the Ether hasnt ignited... right?

Re: Car Died/Wont Start
The beginning of this thread was an old thread and I accidently posted my 'new' issues on it. This is where my car sits... Ether down the air intake... wont fire it all. Front banks are flooding... I can smell a strong gas smell from where you put oil into the motor... even after its been sitting ov...

Re: Car Died/Wont Start
It seems the car is flooding itself out on the bottom banks. So cylindars 246 are flooding... I figured the flooding is from cranking the engine so much. I just got a copy of the firing order for my car so I am going to verify that it is right... Funny thing though, I was told that if you spray ethe...

Re: Car Died/Wont Start
Timing belt is good... I have also tried to spray Ether into the Air intake and it still wont start. I have spark and fuel... Any Idea's? I have checked all fuses (the ones under the hood that is). Compression is alright, not the best though. Ranges from 140-152 between all 6 cylinders....

Car Chugs/Bogs/Something on acceleration
Hi all, Ive read some posts on other peoples acceleration problems, I just have a few extra questions for it. I have a 1994 MX-3 V6, when you accelerate the car seems to chug, almost like water in the fuel. When you get to lets say 100/kph it runs smooth, but if you have to slow down and then take o...
