I don't have time to search... I barely have time to make this thread but I took my car to pep-boys clean out my EGR to get my CEL off. It's off and I then got it inspected but since then I have noticed a smell of gas when I'm driving around and when I come to a stop my idle is very rumbly... It shakes the car unnormally and it's slightly irratating... It feels like it may stall but it never does. It also goes from 500 RPM's to like 700 and back down?

I was just wondering if anyone knows whats up? Could the people at pep-boys have f-ed up my car? I checked under my car and there is no gas tank leak.

Sorry again for not searching

Help a brotha out though

 

might be the IACV

 

why'd you take it to pep-boys to clean out the egr?
acura dealership does it for free.

 

I'm at 168xxx

and another thing I noticed is when I start it up it kind of lags... its usually like t-t-vroooom

now its like t-t-vr-t-vroooom

 

you have further carbon buildup. try taking your Idle Air Control Valve (IAC) and your throttle body and clean them both out. Besides that if the problem occurs you might want to check your O2 Sensor

 

Does that explain the gas smell? And could you post a picture/ diagram of where they are for a 2.2? I know the throttle body but the IACV... adn how to clean them

thanks bruh

 

Update: so I took my friend home and looked under the car whiile the car was running to see if gas was leaking... it was... It doesn't leak, however, when it's off soo anyone know whats up?

Oh and it leaks from just infront of the cat but I don't thik from the exhaust...

 

Wha... for free? Explain this further!
