WOW! Thanks for the input everyone. Here I go...
Rogerm60,
No, I still haven't takin it in yet. I just got promoted last week and have been working my A$$ off. I just haven't had time. Anyway... I had my timing belt replaced just after I bought the car (at 87k, now I have 100k). I doubt that they replaced the tensioner. How can I verify if it is working properly? What do you mean by static timing?
The one piece of test equipment that I don't have is a vacuum guage. If I buy one, what should my readings be at idle?
D Davis,
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for the OBD readings! This is what I've been dying for. Finally something to compare to. Did you actually fork over the cash for the diagnostic DVD?!? You are HARDCORE!! ...either that or you work at a dealership... Thanks again!
Bob,
Those readings are EXACTLY the same as mine. I feel much better now.
Thanks again everyone!
Now please tell me about static timing and vacuum levels. I wanna fix my baby!!
