Bad Starting--Bad Idling??
OK, not only is it starting like crap it is now idling like it too.
To get you up to speed when I turn the key "on" the relay doesn't click at all and fuel pressure doesn't build (it used to do this) and I get a code 54. I've changed the relay and still the same problem. Is this a problem with the ecm? When it does fire after extended cranking it really smells like gas BAD! I've had the injectors cleaned but it really seems like I got a leaker.
Also lately when it is idling in gear the revs surge from 500 to 800. Don't know if its coincidence but it seems to have started doing this shortly after the convertor install.
Any ideas?
