    erratic idle at startup and when stopping

    Upon startup when cold, i.e. overnight, the car has a very erratic idle, going from 1500 rpm to about 600. It does that a couple of times then settles in to where it should be. It will hesitate once load is applied but only for a few minutes. Runs great after this until stopping sometimes...

    a/c and alternator belt

    I believe my A/C compressor pulley froze up this morning. The belt was making a whining noise and smoke started coming from the A/C pulley area. The belt finally broke after a minute. My A/C has not worked since I bought the car, and i really don't care about it. Can the pulley alone be...

    Hey all, Lately I have been noticing a slight grinding noise coming from what appears to be the alternator area. It doesn't do it all the time. Today when I started it to go to lunch it sounded like a slight intermittent knock. Its definetely coming from the alternator area. I'm fairly...

    95 SHO wont start after runing/geting worse

    I used to live on Riddle Road, too. Can't remember the name of the apartments at the s-curve for the life of me. Lived there for 4 years. Glad to hear one of your problems is fixed!

    CID and CPS?

    Hey guys, I just ran my codes and got both a 211 and 214. Occassionally, although more frequently now, when the car is cold, it starts to buck and the rpms go to zero after i have turned the car off then tried to turn it back on. Takes a bit, but it starts, but the tack is at 0. It runs...

    codes

    Thanks, Scott. You'll have to forgive me, but I'm kind of new to this stuff. I have never done anything major to any engine. Just know the basics. What is the procedure in a nutshell for doing this. Do I need to remove much from the outside of the engine to get to the CID or is it visible...

    codes

    Its a 1995 MTX. Car seems to run fine. There is the occassional (very) of the car bucking, tach drops to zero, CEL comes on, car has no power. That's the only thing wrong that i can tell, and that's only happened a few times in 2 months. It has 130k on it.

    codes

    I recently checked my codes and got a couple i am not sure about. I got a KOEO 214 and 542. What and where is the CID circuit and why is it saying my fuel pump is "open" or "always on?" I know it does not run all the time.

    moisture problem???

    Thanks for the responses. This only rarely happens, maybe 5 times since i got the car 6 weeks ago. Ran great this weekend, even seemed to run cooler than normal the last couple days for whatever reason. So, i will check for a loose connection somewhere then take the car in soon to have the...

    moisture problem???

    The following has happened a few times since I bought the car (1 month ago): Car starts fine and runs good for a few minutes (sometimes 5-10 mins.) Then, all of a sudden, will start bucking, have no power, tack drops to zero, check engine light comes on. I turn the car off, let it sit a couple...

    No go!!!!

    just a quick question for you. does it make the high pitched noise when you turn in both directions or just one? I have a similar noise when i turn left. Other than the noise, everything is fine.

    Intermittent Surging

    One more thing. I have a really bad creaking/grinding noise when i turn the steering wheel to the left, very little when turned to the right. Sounds like then noise is coming from the front left, but cannot pinpoint it. Don't notice it on the highway, just at a stop or driving slowly...
