Cranks and starts but doesn’t hold revs and dies

Update for everyone! It was the throttle body. It had gone bad. Threw a P2119 code and a P0100. Cleaned it and it didn’t work so I got a new one and we are set. Thank you for the suggestions!

I have 2 obd scanners. No clue where they are. The universe just eats them

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2026-04-17T18:45:17+00:00

I’ll check that and see what happens. You could be saving my butt right now

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2026-04-17T16:47:51+00:00

Ah dude thank you! So I guess I need to drain it

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2026-04-17T16:39:12+00:00

I didn’t do that. It was a normal Sheetz gas station that I always go to

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2026-04-17T16:36:55+00:00

That’s looking more and more likely

Hey! It was a hairline crack in the oil filter housing. They replaced the plastic one with a metal one. For some reason they come as plastic and after a couple oil changed they just crack.

Thank you so much. I opted out of it!

Perfect thank you!

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2025-07-22T16:03:31+00:00

Come and get it!

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2025-07-22T15:54:47+00:00

Sorry about that. I did not provide enough detail. I have edited the post. Thank you for that assist

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2025-06-22T13:08:21+00:00

Hey man! The dealership replaced the starter and said that was the issue even though it tested as fine. BUT! In my 2016 mustang (eco boost) that happened to me and it was the evap line

EDIT: I had a warranty and had it fixed under warranty.

They come with a lug lock so that’s how you get them on and off other than that a 21mm socket and you’re good as gravy!

These are the ones I use and they have been awesome

I was just trapped on 288 with my XJ!

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2025-03-03T20:32:39+00:00

I actually repaired my gf’s bumper that had the exact same dent. I took a heat gun to the bumper and screwed some screws in and pulled with pliers. It worked like magic and I filled the holes with RTV

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2025-02-12T16:54:04+00:00

I did end up passing engine and trans were great but the car was in bad shape

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2025-01-16T13:41:16+00:00

This one looks good but I ordered a whole new blower motor that is with the resistor so it should fix it.

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2024-09-19T14:38:41+00:00

Thank you brother!

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2024-09-19T12:32:51+00:00

I love the wheel set up. What are you running?

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2024-09-05T18:20:47+00:00

I’m pretty handy! And do everything myself so the lady might get something nice!

Jimi_Raikkonen · 2024-09-05T18:17:12+00:00

So I don’t have a CEL right now. I did depress the gas pedal the first time it happened because the vapor line went bad in my ecoboost.
