are you throwing any error codes? ....also, clean out your TB

 

Have you changed your fuel filter lately. My Max was acting really crazy. Like staling at idle, or cutting out as you turned a corner and going no where between 1000-2500 rpm's. After 2500rpm's it would run great. Change the filter, it's only $15 or so!

 

yes forgot to mention that too

 

no check engine light

i'll try the fuel filter

where do i go to clean the throttle body

i'm in the chicago area

thanx

 

do the fuel filter and clean out your throttle body as well....

 

Under your hood

Seriously look at www.motorvate.ca There's a nice write up with pics on that site.

 

ya thats what i followed, and the results were great....also, a tip...if you let some of the TB cleaner drip onto the hoses underneath the TB, dont worry about it...itll stain it yellow, and looks like its corroding it....just get some water on you hands, and smudge it out ....thought my lines were going to evaporate to dust when that happened

 

thanx for the info i'll try it today
