1997 Chrysler Sebring 6 cyl Automatic 165k miles
My 97 Sebring misses, hesitates, sometimes stalls at idle and initial acceleration. No check engine light. My Actron scanner showed pending code of Multiple missfire #1, 5, 6. This car had a tuneup about 30k ago, new fuel filter this spring. So far I have: pulled and checked fuel filter (ok), added fuel treatment and prem. Gas, cleaned dist. Cap contacts & rotor, pulled cat. Converter and "inspected" it, changed IAC valve, cleaned throttle body. After IAC valve installation car started, revved, I drove it at a constant 40mph per installation instr. It threw a CEL code high current to TPS. That cleared, thinking that may be part of the re-learning process. The car idles about 700rpm. If I carefully ease into the throttle it will speed up. If I just push on the gas it wants to stall. I adjusted slack at throttle cable and realized the car will not maintain an rpm between 700 & 1500. It's like all or nothing. I've ordered a new TPS which will be in tomorrow. Also- my diag. Scanner shows no 02 sensor signal (no light or code) I find it hard to believe all 4 o2 sensors would go bad at once, is there a relay or something I can check? It's been 24 hrs. And I haven't received a replly. Do I need to donate more than $10 to get help?
Today I checked EGR valve (ok), cleaned ITC (OK), replaced MAP sensor and TPC sensor. Checked again for vacuum leaks. Still have miss at idle. Car drove good at highway speed. Misses at idle, wants to stall if you give it the gas when engine is at low speed.
