I sprayed Carb Cleaner through the tube that leads to the IACV and now my car is having a hard time starting. ive done this before and after a few tries the car would start. now ive tried about 10 times and nothing.

please i need suggestions thanks.

Bigballin · 10-08-2006, 02:28 PM

anyone? could i have flooded something??

chmercer · 10-08-2006, 03:50 PM

need more details. hard time starting like how. cranks slow? wont crank? starts and dies? starts and idles too high? etc etc

Bigballin · 10-08-2006, 04:01 PM

wont crank just keeps trying to. i remember something like this happening to a friend when his injectors flooded his engine.

by the way my car is completely stock i was just trying to cleant hat fucking IACV

chmercer · 10-08-2006, 04:04 PM

shouldntve flooded anything, carb cleaner evaporates really fast, MAYBE the carb cleaner dissolved somthing in the iacv that got clogged somwhere else, but i doubt that would keep it from starting..

keep trying it a few times, and if it doesnt start, then wait a few hours and try again, it shouldnt not start for that long of a time since its only carb cleaner, unless you left or made a vacuum leak in the process.

Unplug your injectors, all of them, crank over a few times then plug them back in. If it starts then it was flooded, if not, its something else.

i did this and still the same thing. this shit is not what i expected. what could i have unclogged for my motor not to start?

Bigballin · 10-09-2006, 09:42 AM

i tried again to start it this morning no luck. im really hoping something didnt seize up. anyway more ideas. anyone? can i try cranking it for a couple of minutes or will that damage something?

Bigballin · 10-09-2006, 02:19 PM

its my DD, help really needed

Take all your spark plugs out and then crank it over, this should clean all your cylinders out. If its full of gas to the point of being hydro locked you might want to check your injector seals. If nothing comes out, you should check for power to your starter.

Bigballin · 10-10-2006, 10:32 AM

well nothing came out and when i tried to put the spark plugs back and start it the starter kind of sounded like it was losing power.

im i fucked here?

im getting the errors from my ecu

15: fuel injector clogged

25: IACV

help please

bo2o · 10-10-2006, 10:53 AM

is it slowly cranking?
is it cranking and does it get faster or slower?
check for spark and fuel pressure or just listen if your pump is hissing.
if all that passes check your compression.

Bigballin · 10-10-2006, 11:06 AM

it cranks but it gets slower. i think my injectors are clogged and it cant get fuel to start

can i buy feul injector cleaner or is there a better way to clean the injectors?

Bigballin · 10-10-2006, 12:27 PM

injectors are cleaned except the number 3 injector (the screw was stripped) checked my ecu codes and its ready that everything is ok.

try to start the car and it gets slower....
