[SIZE=medium]More problems with my 2.2 na 1987 Plymouth Sundance….[/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]I got a code 24 this week, and the “power loss” lamp lit. I unplugged, cleaned, and greased the various connectors (CTS, TPS, AIS, etc) under the hood, including at the computer end, unplugged the battery to clear codes, and checked for vacuum leaks. The vac hoses all appear to be in a good state. Upon reconnecting the battery and starting the engine, the symptoms re-occurred, so I replaced the TPS and once again cleared the codes by disconnecting the battery.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]Upon restarting the engine, I now have a very high idle (~1800-2000) while in park. The car idles at a nice 900 or so when in drive, as opposed to the 500-600 it was doing prior to replacing the TPS. The power loss lamp does not light, but a day after replacing the TPS, I now have a code 24 again :flashred: . No other codes are present. The car also seems to stumble a bit, though it has noticeably improved power (quicker acceleration). [/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]The wires, rotor and plugs are all new, and I put in a new O2 sensor last month. When I replaced the plus and O2 sensor, they were a bit white, suggested a lean condition. The symptoms I’ve had since replacing the TSP now suggest a rich condition. Any thoughts on what else I need to check? Could the AIS be going but not setting a code?[/SIZE]
