Hello to all members here,
I shall have a brief intro here since i haven't properly make an introduction at the newbies section. Am from Kuching Sarawak and bought an ee100 with SVT auto in it two n half years back. My knowledge on car was somewhat a bit above beginner level. :)
This problem occurred to me three weeks back. I was driving and then suddenly the car keep on having this misfire sound coming from the exhaust and my RPM went bonkers, when i lift of my pedal fully the car engine went dead. When i start the engine again it runs but RPM bonkers, kept on having misfire and black smoke coming out from the exhaust.
I manage to get it home some how and i notice when this "event" occur my RPM will only reach 2k even with my pedal fully stepped down. If i put it to N (free) the RPM will go bonkers :stupid: (up and down up and down if no step on will stale)
Within this 3 weeks this problem come and go. At best 2 days no event. I've clean my throttle bodies, AFM, ISCV and whatever that can be cleaned up to my knowledge. So far only left o2 sensor (saw the wire got a bit scar when i change exhaust) and ECU haven't check.
So far the mods made are: ( they came along when i bought the car)
1. Spark cables, red ones (dunno brand)
2. Iridium spark plugs
3. A gearbox oil cooler
the rest quite stock.
After reading for 2 weeks in ZTH i finally decide to post this trouble up and hope for guidance from all fellow members here. I sincerely hope that it wasn't the ECU. Am under quite heavy budget constraint. All help are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
edit: This 3 days one more new thing i notice, this event occurs more in the morning when i first start my car (still driving it daily cos only 1 car). Second or third time i start it won't happen but sometimes it does.
