^^^^huh??? figure the shit out so it runs right.... not hard. and squish an obvious sign of running lean is a rough idle. have ur friend check all lines again, and check the o-ring around the maf sensor. (that was my problem). and the coupling to the throttle body.

**Squishy** · 07-12-2010, 03:51 PM

thanks cb, will do.

mother fucker!! i burnt my thumb on my straightner today... fucking hurts..

but yeah I went to check out some rims, and as I got back into my car and started it, it almost died on me for the first time and my friend was standing right by my car, we were both like what the fuck... he's gonna read them later today

**cbcelica** · 07-12-2010, 04:20 PM

ha i get out a the shower and throw my hat on... i bet that does hurt tho! and ok cool ill check this later

**Squishy** · 07-12-2010, 04:22 PM

yeah I didn't know I already turned it on and I went to push the tab to turn it on and my thumb touched the plate

**Carroll_Cahoon** · 07-12-2010, 04:27 PM

have you got a chance to pull the codes Squishy? They'll most likely be able to narrow down the problem so your looking at 100 things and instead focused on one

**Squishy** · 07-12-2010, 04:34 PM

Yeah I know, when I went to look at the rims, he pulled the tab thing covering where the reader goes it to make sure his reader will fit, I think he'll be over later so he will check it then.

**J.Martins** · 07-12-2010, 11:45 PM

Squish I definitely think that it is going to pop P0171. That is the same problem I had

**Squishy** · 07-13-2010, 12:03 AM

That's running lean in lower bank, so 02 sensor, but I shouldn't have that issue

**J.Martins** · 07-13-2010, 12:07 AM

See that is the code that mine popped and when I corrected the little hose being uncapped the code never popped again and now quite a few months later still no issue.

your problem likely lies in a missing air intake temp sensor provision on your CAI, alot of cheaper built intakes will not have a bung for this requiring you to drill and gromment a hole for it. Im not sure of this on the 7th gen but i would look into that

YouTube - How to install an AEM cold air intake on a 7th gen Toyota celica
also check that video out, it has a step by step install of an AEM kit

HAHA

Thats actually my video I put up there.

and btw way I never did hook that ECU hose up again, and I've been rolling with that CAI for 2 months and no check engine light. Dont ask me about codes, I dont even have an owners manual.

But I would try disconnecting the Negative terminal. WAIT 5 MINS. and then go hook it back up. thats what I had to do to reset mine.

**J.Martins** · 07-13-2010, 01:48 PM

See guys I don't think that is the issue Squish is having. I actually thinking she has a loose fitting or a cracked hose based solely on the fact that she said it has rough idle. Rough idle means the car is running lean so it has to much air and not enough fuel in the mix.

**Squishy** · 07-13-2010, 07:44 PM

It's only a weird jittering sometimes, and LOL celica, that's probably why we were laughing at the way you say "Celica".... haaha, don't get mad again.. LOL

**J.Martins** · 07-13-2010, 08:43 PM

Am I missing something?

**Squishy** · 07-13-2010, 08:48 PM

J, when I laughed at his lambo doors, he got butthurt... and he just said he posted the video he made for the intake. I said that's why the guy says "Celica" wrong in it. He's saying it like "cell-ik-a" when it's "Sa-lee-kah"

**Celica13** · 07-13-2010, 09:04 PM

ok ok.. The reason I say Celica, is because Not only do the North and south have different versions of all kinds of words. But Do you have a SALL phone or a CELL phone. Its Not spelt SALLY KA.
And I dont get butthurt floppy head :)

**Squishy** · 07-13-2010, 09:06 PM

what the hell is a floppy head... LOL?...

**Celica13** · 07-13-2010, 09:12 PM

OMGAH you dont watch southpark.. good GOD.

**Squishy** · 07-13-2010, 09:13 PM

I do but apparently I've never seen that episode... do I need to google it, LOL

**Squishy** · 07-13-2010, 09:14 PM

nice edit btw..
". Its Not spelt SALLY KA."

It's not for spelling matters, it's pronunciation ... duh!!
