Well, the problem has been ongoing for a while now (about 10k or so) and in hot weather imparticular, it would just flat out not work as it is doing now. What it would do is work okay for a while, then durring WOT or close to, it would either just fall flat on it's face (IMRC would stop opening the secondaries), or it would go in and out (you could blatently feel it opening and closing... fluttering, like it couldn't make up it's mind, for a few seconds) till it once again gave up and fell flat on it's face. This would consistantly happen and I would just be screwed for the rest of that drive. After letting it sit for a little while, it would work again on the next drive till it gave up again. I get the IMRC stuck open code which is BS since the thing is obviously closed and the car is in hardcore limp mode as a result. Car feels like a 3cyl. metro towing a semi. Anyway, that's what the deal is. My car was idling for a long time the other night and ever since then, it's done. For a couple of days now, it just doesn't work at all anymore... my guess is that the heat soak for that extended period of time cooked it. Obviously head has played a major roll in it's functionality anyway, so it finaly is done. I need a new one now.
