ICM Failure

How would I know if my ICM is starting to fail? Whenever the car is cold it idles great. Once it warms up. I stumbled/misses like crazy. Could this be a problem too?

I might be starting to give you problems, but usually the engine will die once it get hot, and once the icm cools down it'll start, but your problem sounds more like the O2 sensors are bad.

I replaced those. Along with these other parts.
ECM.
Coil.
Plugs.
Wires.
Fuel Filter
PCV Valve.
MAP Sensor.
Cap And Rotor.

I don't know what's wrong with it. I wish someone knew.

Check your Smog Air Check Valves and the hoses that conects them to the Smog Pump. The Check valves should not leak exhaust backwards and there shouldnt be any ruptures in the conecting hoses... else it may allow fresh air to enter the Exhaust manifolds.

if they are ok then check the Coolant temp sensor. They are pretty good quality but if one fails it will throw your fuel mix into the pits. Just food for thought

and most important of all.. never give up, never surrender..


keeps us posted.
