I’d also check that your fan feels tight on the water pump (not too much side to side play, and that it spins smoothly) while you have the belt off.
Hi, I put a smaller belt on, your correct nothing changed. I checked the fan looks good. Now this morning it just turns over and dies not like yesterday, it would idle for a minute or less then die.
About a year ago I had a problem some what like this so I changed the MAF no change, I change the AIC no change and then some one suggest clogged cats, so I drilled some holes in the cats and bam that was the problem. so I put a new cat on and thats been about a year ago. Also I changed all the spark plugs coil packs fuel filter new battery.
So im wondering if it could be the clooged cat again.
Let me know what you think, thanks
