June 4, 200620 yr comment_121238 its a good possibility, but it must of been a desent sized rock :monkey: Report
June 4, 200620 yr comment_121279 is it a MAP-sensed 4AGZE or AFM 4AGZE? Check all the vacuum hoses etc, make sure the manifolds are tight. Check it over for fuel leaks, make sure the ignition timing is spot on. Get someone to check all the fault codes on the ECU as well. If something isnt right, it should throw a code Good luck! I have deleted your other topic as it is exactly the same.. Report
June 5, 200620 yr comment_121308 O2 sensor makes pretty much sfa difference to a 4agze's mixture (ok maybe a lil richer). First thing you could do is get a tune, least the c**ts who do it will find the problem for ya :monkey: Report
