First of, I'd like to say Happy Pre-New Years to everyone... It's not even NYE and I already started my 2010 with the V6 down. :aaron: Last time, it was @ rough idle and found out that one spark plug wire was not working properly, so that was changed a year ago. Now, it's at the same mode, but the spark plug wires are functioning, cleaned the spark plugs and checked the gap. Added Seafoam too... Check the PCV valve and valve itself for any leaks, the air intake seems clean (I can see the light from the inner portion). Now...I have no clue what the heck is wrong with the damn V6!!!
Description of problem:
* rough idle
* engine shaking
* even the damn manual stick shift is wobbling
* during idle, it goes from 500 to 1000 rpms and starts to shut down until I press on the gas and it carries on with the rough idle.
* clattering sound on right/passenger side
* sounds like a tug boat.
* no check engine light
Any clues anyone?? I'd like to get this fix before I head to work... Thanks in advance.
