The po170 is fuel trim malfunction...best guess, with the misfire codes present, look for a bad injector or a vacuum leak associated with the #2 cylinder... -- jeffcoslacker ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jeffcoslacker's Profile: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...?userid=219638 View this thread: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=616092 http://www.automotiveforums.com

Look for a disconnected/leaking vacuum hose, make sure the injector harness connections are tight, maybe try some injector cleaner...pull the plug outta the #2 cylinder (or all of them) and clean/replace...how old is this car, and how many miles? I had to look it up, never heard of it. Dumb question. It's not a diesel is it? If so, ignore my previous answers, and then I couldn't tell you what to look for... -- jeffcoslacker ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jeffcoslacker's Profile: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...?userid=219638 View this thread: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=616092 http://www.automotiveforums.com
