this is the second time this happens, the first was no where near as bad.

it was time to fill up, i pull into shell to get my regular dose of vpower 93 octane. i turn the car off, fill it up, close gas cap, get back into the car turn on electronics / fuel pump etc. let it cycle then i turn it on. after i filled the gas tank up my idle goes out of wack, jumping up and down continuasly trying very hard to stall unless i give it gas, and when i give it gas theres a major throttle delay, it stalls. i turn it back on and begin to get it moving thinking it just needs some air. as it drives i notice once again a major loss in throttle response, it feels as if the car is in one major lurchy laggy limp mode. i come to a stop and once again am forced to fight the idle untl i just give up and let it die. i turn it back on and bam the idles beutiful and the car is back to normal....it makes no sense this is only after i fill up at the gas station.

 

try a different gas station?

MOBIL FTW!!

 

mmm... my tc did the same thing when i reset the battery... rpms drop really low and it stalls out.. but than again.. im not FI..

but maybe that will help ya

 

mmm....same thing happened to me, though it was at a chevron station

 

I always get shell, if I can't I go with bp I don't mix

 

what are your air/fuels lookin like when its doing that? super rich? super lean?

mine did it once, same exact situation. It was very very lean at idle 18-20 af/r so i dumped some more fuel in on the idle cells and it never happened again, not sure what caused it tho.

 

ima fool and im not running a a/f............gota get1 but im sure its overly rich iv been dealing w/ a fuel dump at idle for quite some time now. has somthing to do w/ my tune & 3''intake.

 

i had this problem...ur maf is dirty clean her up

 

bad gas? loose gas cap? first things i can think of?

 

I'm no fool gas caps always a minimum of 2 clicks in & I cleaned my maf a week ago

 

yea toyota tech says your ecu is fried and your motor will be in about a week,

no no just kidding, yea might i ask that u remove the maf flip it upside down so u can see into it look for something stuck in it that u didnt clean out i cleaned my maf three times before i realized something was stuck in between the plastic and the metal sensor

 

going to go with MAF sensor, or Throttle position sensor.

 

im going to go with cats. sleeping in your engine.

 

 

dude that cat is a serial killer

 

x2 kind of freaky actually.

 

cats in asia are probably a little more cautious of people because they know that they might be dinner.

 

^^haha that cat must be from china then.. cause as soon as it heard the guy in back of him with the camera.. he... gave.... him... the... LOOK....................................................................

 

only u would find ____ like this haha

 

thank you kind sir!
