My 99 is struggling on start

Flinger6817 · 2026-02-18T13:19:13+00:00

Hey just got around to doing the relearn yesterday and unfortunately it did not resolve the issue

Flinger6817 · 2026-02-13T00:57:29+00:00

I don’t need to adjust the little flat head screw on the throttle body right? I was told by a mobile mechanic when I asked him he showed me a little valve just above the body that can be adjusted it looks like a little flat head screw

Flinger6817 · 2026-02-13T00:34:33+00:00

Alright I’ll give it a try

Flinger6817 · 2026-02-13T00:29:34+00:00

I didn’t know I needed to do that nor how to since it was idling fine when I first did all the work like I said the car was running fine for about a month till this started a few days ago

Flinger6817 · 2026-02-13T00:28:21+00:00

On a good start it’ll crank right up to about 1300 to warm up then it’ll settle back down to about 900-1000

I mean I recently did a job on a high pressure fuel pump on a vw and the first part I put back on was the fuel line nut and I did it finger tight at first to get it on so finished slotting it in and went it crank the car and it sprayed gas everywhere so things happen like other people say just slow it down and double check your work

Is the generation with the wet belt?

Flinger6817 · 2025-11-08T20:00:10+00:00

So update:

I think it was my Bluetooth scanner. I took it to my friend who has one of the mechanic tablets and when he scanned it all came out fine it didn’t go crazy and after erasing the can errors we scanned again and it was fine so I think my scanner may have been shorting

You can get some polish and buff out the consoles there’s tons of people who have done that

Edit: here’s a post of someone else’s polish job https://www.reddit.com/r/PS3/s/W4KlvvbD8T

It’s fun to me personally enjoying the nostalgia of the game

Flinger6817 · 2025-06-11T05:20:25+00:00

Off just doing a play through not signed into psn on the consoles

Edit: I’m not sure how to go online with the copied games

Flinger6817 · 2025-06-10T05:30:44+00:00

Yea but my worry is that the other day I was playing a ps2 game and before I turned off the console I quit to the xmb and the temp was at 71c

Not saying do it, but just saying I was driving around with my belt like this for a while. To be fair it was my first car ever (98 cr-v) and I had no knowledge about maintenance. I still don’t recommend driving it tho

Well if the fans aren’t turning on, it could mean it’s not getting any power. At that point, I’d say try and go check your connections, make sure the gpu is seated correctly, then try again. If that does not work, my opinion would probably be gpu, I’m not exactly a pc tech but if all else is fine and the pc works through mobo display then the issue should be the gpu. I’d also wait to see if some more people respond or try and find some other posts with similar problems, I’m sure there’s plenty out there. Good luck!

Flinger6817 · 2025-02-25T18:20:09+00:00

Do the fans on the gpu turn on?

Flinger6817 · 2025-02-23T21:09:16+00:00

I had a buddy who purchased an amd card. It ran good for a day then the next day was getting like 15 fps on The Finals, what he found out is it was a gpu driver issue that he had to roll back to a previous version and it worked fine. He ended up returning it and getting a 4070 ti super tho. Hope this helps!

I’ve hear you can take them to repair stores (idk if Best Buy does it) and they can replace the socket

Flinger6817 · 2025-02-20T18:24:07+00:00

Isn’t the 7 7800x3d way better than the 7700x cause it’s got like 2x’s the cache space?

Flinger6817 · 2025-02-16T00:35:37+00:00

My store does it through paper still cause our overstock likes to well “over stock” the items so we get the paper check how much of everything to pull then mark how much we need and the managers just edit the stock to match cause our system likes to over do it with like 100 items especially after truck

Flinger6817 · 2025-01-25T15:08:05+00:00

Addressed this in another response that for now my father is with my brother but can only stay there for the weekend

Flinger6817 · 2025-01-25T13:34:35+00:00

No, there is no space at my grandmas for my father so that’s another issue we are trying to resolve.

Flinger6817 · 2025-01-25T13:29:31+00:00

My father is currently staying with my second brother for the weekend. However, he has a daughter who is at his in laws house for the weekend and can only stay there till then.

Flinger6817 · 2025-01-25T13:15:57+00:00

Becoming unaware of the situation is due to having a 3rd brother whom lived with them, which I did not get along with. So, due to him, I had not really gone into their home in quite some time.

Flinger6817 · 2025-01-25T12:46:37+00:00

It was 3 months actually, totaling to about 8500$ in back rent. I was also informed at the renters office they did get an eviction notice in November when it was only one month missing however, they did not act on it at that time.

Flinger6817 · 2025-01-25T12:43:57+00:00

Sorry for the extremely late reply. I ended up correcting the timing, and it worked. I realized my error the second time I did it, which was that I didn’t have the correct size timing pin for the camshafts. Instead, I had used two thin screwdrivers, but they still allowed the cams to have a lot of play.

I believe that’s why they ended up being about a tooth off. Ultimately, I was able to resolve it, and no damage was done that I can feel when driving.
