P2R Problem? Fixable???
I just recently added the P2R throttle spacer & gaskets. My car now knocks and runs super rich causing a CEL. Anything I can do to correct this without removing the throttle spacer & gaskets?
Also, I have the R-V6 pre-cat deletes, test pipe, j-pipe, custom 2.5" exhaust system, UR underdrive pulley, & AEM cai.![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)
Never had any problems with a CEL, running rich, and knocks until installing the P2R spacer & gaskets.![ugh](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/ugh.gif)
Suggestions???

Sounds like you have a loose TPS sensor plug. I would check and make sure everything is good and snug. If problem arrays again. double check all wires around the area you were working on before the ping. Sounds like either TPS, or ground wire near the front cylinder head is loose this will cause a fault because there is a short in the pimary sending from engine to ecu!

^Spacer does it's job and this is not normal. Somethings not connected. You can't screw up cannon plugs on cars anymore - each plug is a different shape and size for one receptacle.

Do you have one? Have you seen one?
Do you know what you are talking about?
My car is full of P2R mods and they are all great.
P2R has helped me in more ways than I can say and have been great.
Unless you have a specific complaint that they did not rectify please don't bash.
As has been said check all your connections. Did you install the plug in the spacer? If not there is a big hole there.

I think you may have trans cooler listed twice in your title block.

I asked if he had any real experience with the product.
They have given me great products at fair prices with great support, why shouldn't I say so?
Trust me I am not shy to deride bad companies, ask anyone that knows me.
Perhaps I have two coolers?

I recall, from back in the day, that this is normal when installing the spacer.
The CEL comes and goes. I recall other members having this 'issue'.

how about not resetting the light and reading the damn thing... stop telling people to clear the light this and that...
if there is a light get it read... ASAP
if you have nav pm me I will give you the directions for checking it on the nav... if you do not have nav drive over to autozone and get it read

A random CEL is not normal and certainly not the norm in any P2R threads I browsed. Have both TBS and IM.
Stillhere, totally agree with reading codes before resetting. I vowed from day 1 with this car that I will not be comfortable with a CEL or any other yellow light flashing in the dash.

Everything was installed properly and I did plug the hole with the provided plug... nothing loose or disconnected. The car runs really good with no loss of power with the CEL. Still get the knocking sound tho..........
