I turned on the car this morning and it started to sought of sputter?
when i try to step on the pedal it went just fine
I drop the kids off and continued on my way to my therapy and it sputtered again like when i first started the car i was at a stop light so i shifted to nuetral and step on the gas the rpms gauge hesitated then went up and i shifted into drive and went. I got near the office and right by the bus stop i just turned the corner it started to sputter i step on the gas hard and it just kept sput... sput.. sput... step on the gas again and it was like a miny explosion (pop) sound out of the tail pipe consistant with me stepping on the gas, unfortunately i was not dress for the occasion to get dirty i pilled over to the bus stop and pop the hood turn off the car and tried to restart still doing the same so i poped on the fuel gauge and started it gauge read 30-31 psi and thats while it was doing the described. I pressed on the throttle and the gauge of course jumped up a little and went back down to the steady 31psi but still the car was jumping like crazy making these popping noises i pinched the supply line just to see what would happin with the gauge and nothing so i shut it down.
when i started it back up the gauge pressure started rising very slowly pass the normal 31psi i think it was because i pinch the line (be4) so i shut it down took of the gauge and restarted the car and it idled real high i unpluged the TPS three connector (seems to stop high idle for me) and waited a second the car idled normal i plug the three connector back in and i drove to the nearest parking.
it took me a hour in my therapy when i came i started the car and drove straight home right before i could get around the corner it started to sputter and everytime i stepped on the gas it made that poping noise out the tail pipe? is this backfire? or misfire? i dont know what either feel like
or if you kno what this is please let me know
