AE82 Corolla GT Liftback
Bluetop 4AGE

Start the car, idles like shit, put foot down on gas pedal, dies instantly
Start car, foot on gas pedal, roars into life for a second, then dies
Start car, tap gas pedal on and off intermittently, runs, then chokes then runs

Left car, set alarm...will attack in the morning...

Where do I start?

Plug it in?
Checked fault codes?

Car broke down while driving home

On my particular car, how do I enable the diagnostic check
I don't think it has that diagnostic box

might just have the two pin plug, like ae86?

by **spoonza6** » Sat Sep 14, 2013 8:59 am

Oh, anyone got a pic of which one? Gonna go back to car today n try fix

Vacuum hose could have come off the MAF sensor.

Try un-plugging the TPS to see if it runs better. Vac line to map sensor is a good place to start. Water temp plug connected properly? (Green one on back of head, two wires)

Unplugged TPS n it did the same ran for few seconds then died

Unplugged map sensor n it did same as above

Water plug connected...

Could it be starved of fuel?

What about the engine start relay? if it fails doesn't the fuel pump stop running?

by **Leon** » Sat Sep 14, 2013 2:12 pm

Where's that? How I get another to check it with to eliminate?

im not sure if this is even remotely related, but I used to own a skyline that idles like shit and would stall often. Turned out to be a clogged up throttle body. Everything went fine after cleaning it.

Hey man got your text, but was busy just spotted this now - dont have a TPS but I have a spare coil and ignitor if it turns out to be that

Whats your timing like - possible its been bumped?

Not too sure, it died on way home so pulled over n tried to fix to no avail

Am gonna try get it home n...lost on why to do about it for now

Yes I'd like to borrow a few components to eliminate what's wrong with it

I would be checking fuel pressure.

Home DIY way is run the return line into a container,
as long as there is fuel flowing out the return there will be enough pressure,
as the regs are ultra reliable unless tampered with.

No flow out means not enough pressure.

+ 1 for fuel pump. or something fuel related at least
