AIR HOSE
There is only one vacuum hose near the throttle body which we checked and resealed again with some silicone and small bolt to cap the hose. Are there more vacuum hoses than one?
NO GASKET FOUND
When we replaced the first throttle body we noticed the issue of no vacuum, found out there was no gasket on the throttle body. Got one made and it solved the vacuum issue. We checked the vacuum by blocking the air intake hose with our palm and the engine would stall. The mechanic said it means no vacuum leaks. Made sense to us.
AIR FILTER HOSING
The air filter housing seems ok, has no cracks, never checked if its seated properly so will look into that. Thanks
AIR FILTER
The air filter is new, genuine nippon.
AIR FLOW SENSOR or CARD
The mechanic is now saying the card inside the throttle is faulty. We have replaced that once before with another kabli one, nothing changed. He now says the ECU needs to be reprogrammed.
HELP
Dont know what to do!
