THOSE LOOSE HOSES MAY BE THE PROBLEM, IF THEY ARE A VACUUM LEAK
..........CAN YOU REPAIR THEM?........REPLACE 'EM?......HOOK 'EM BACK WHERE THEY GO?
THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT MAY ALSO BE ON FOR........OTHER REASONS.....THERE'S ONLY "ONE LIGHT" AND WELL OVER A HUNDRED REASONS FOR IT TO BE ON......YOU MAY HAVE MULTIPLE CODES!
MANY AUTO PARTS STORES WILL SCAN FOR YOUR CODES FOR FREE
HAVE IT CODED AGAIN---THIS TIME GET THE EXACT NUMBERS---THEY WILL BE LIKE: "P0265" OR "P0171" (JUST MADE UP EXAMPLES)----POST 'EM TO US, SHOULD YOU NOT GET 'EM FIGURED OUT MORE CORRECTLY
EVEN IF THEY OFFER A DIAGNOSIS....GET THE NUMBERS......NOT WHAT THEY SAID, CODES CAN BE INTERPRETED DIFFERENTLY
SOMETIMES STUFF LIKE "LEAN ON BANK ONE" CAN BE INTERPRETED DIFFERENTLY---AS TO WHAT TO DO TO MAKE IT "NOT LEAN"
SOME FOLKS MIGHT WOULD SAY IT NEEDS AN O2 SENSOR--OTHERS MIGHT SAY YOU GOTTA VACUUM LEAK---YET ANOTHER MIGHT SAY THE INJECTOR IS MESSED UPMANY CODES ARE SIMILAR, BUT THE FIX MIGHT BE TOTALLY DIFFERENT

YOU ARE PROBABLY BETTER CYBER ORIENTED THAN I AM.......SO BELOW IS SORTA BASIC
IF IT'S NOT A VACUUM LEAK, IT COULD MAYBE BE THE IAC MESSING UPWE'LL DISCUSS IT LATER---IT'S A VERY EZ THING TO TAKE OFF AND CLEAN
KEEP US POSTED ON PROGRESS---GET US THE CODES---OTHERS WHO ARE MORE FAMILIAR WITH YOUR PLIGHT, MAY JUMP IN AND OFFER MORE INPUT
