Does anyone have a helms for a '97 3.0?? thanks. need to do some troubleshooting. thanks..

 

I have a print copy, do you need me to look up something specific?

 

I was looking for a complete copy of helms because I am in the process of trouble shooting some issues at startup. I'm not really sure what is although it may a distributor going out or the main relay. The problem comes and goes every few weeks.

here is the problem

"my daily is running a little rough these days and i'm trying to figure out what it is. Basically the engine would have trouble starting. It would start initially then die out after the initial engine start up then it would die after the rpm's came down. It will stay on if i revved the throttle, after I let off the engine would die. This problem would come and go every now and then. After a few tries it will start normally."

Anyone experience this before?

 

i got one what do you need

 

Actually thats how my blown head gasket acted when I would start it up.

 

is there a troubleshooting guide/checklist startup or idle-hesitation issues?

headgasket??!?!! man..i hope not...

so far i'm going to clean out the IAVC (Rotary valve) on the throttle body and maybe clean out the EGR ports. For the EGR i'll have to take off the whole intake manifold..bleh. Hopefully this will solve some of the issues..thanks
