Hi, this is my first post on this forum. I've been reading all kinds of threads on this forum and it has really helped my over the last year. I need some assistance because I could not find any threads similar to my situation.
My current situation:
Thanks and Regards,
Paul
My current situation:
- Took my car in to a panel beater to repair a broken mirror and a few dents and scratches
- Got the car back after two weeks (yesterday)
- The idling and acceleration is hesitant and rough
- Everything was perfect before I took the car in and I even have a dyno sheet not older than three months where the engine peaks at 137 KW at the flywheel
- I do have a OBD2 reader (Innovate LM2) that is able to display the engine parameters while I'm driving and I noticed that my Spark Advance spikes from time to time and it seems to be the reason behind the roughness/hesitation.
- I had a quick look at my sensors for loose wires and then the vacuum system for loose pipes
- Found a disconnected bottle cap with a vacuum pipe and sensor in it at my right front wheel
- Does anyone know what the bottle is for?
- Where the second hose connected to the bottle side from the bottle goes?
- Where the third connector at the top goes? It is current open and without a pipe.
- Could it be something else that they might have damaged or disconnected?
Thanks and Regards,
Paul
