Aloha everyone!
:exp:Anyone have experience with a melted DPFE sensor? I'm working a bunch of issues at the same time:
- extremely rough idle and loss of power
- replaced cats - still sounds like rocks in the muffler
- replaced upper/lower intake gaskets (torqued lower to 10ft pds
- replaced thermostat housing
- cleaned MAF sensor and throttle body
- still throwing a P171 code. I sprayed carb cleaner around the intakes - no change in idle, so I think my intake gaskets are good.
I'm worried about the melted sensor - I spotted exhaust coming straight out of the vacuum tubes that connect to the sensor - is that normal?
Anyone have any advice?
