Solving Engine Performance Issues (Part 1)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsGTeWayqIU
I get a lot of questions via email and over at the forum about the steps to take when you encounter a performance issue like my Subaru’s hesitation issue and I often feel like I sound like a broken record when I cover the basic steps that I cover when encountering a situation like that. My main point here is that if you have a performance problem and you’re going to throw parts at the problem start with the basics before you to off and start replacing sensors that you suspect are a problem, if you don’t have evidence of a faulty sensor then don’t start there start with the simple tune up items and check for vacuum leaks and air leaks as I’ve shown here and I believe you’ll have better results and save yourself some money in the process. In short the rule of KISS applies, Keep It Simple Stupid.
If you have questions about your own engine performance issues head over to my website and either ask the search function or ask the forum, we’d be happy to help.
