All you Stg3 brains out there-
I am getting Fuel trim additive lean on bank 1 codes along with Bank 2/3/5 misfires and a cold start problem where the car struggles to stay alive after starting.
My 2002 car has been AWE stg3 for ummm, 2500 miles.
The misfires in particular started when I made consecutive runs at the drag strip. The cold start problems started shortly after that.
You guys think this is a problem with the plugs, fuel filter, or something else? The plugs of course are relatively new from the AWE kit...but the fuel filter is not. That and I *think* i have a boost leak that is affecting my idle. I even had a code that said my idle was high and my throttle position is off. The throttle position has been re-set, but I don't see anything wrong with my idle. Ideas?
