Hi Guys,
I've swapped a year 2002 engine into a year 2000 vehicle. It was just the engine itself that has been swapped - including the head. I re-used everything else ie all the air intake IAC MAF - Inlet manifold etc. There was an issue with the oil filter arrangement as the old engine had a cooler that had water circulating round. I got over that by joining the pipes to bypass the redundant use.
Does anyone know if there are compatabilty issues with the IAC & MAF ? I ask as I have an idling problem now. The engine starts easily enough but just doesn't idle properly. I did start a thread about too fast idling which I addressed as I had a split hose that leaked extra air into the inlet. The engine ran well after that for a couple of days but gradually the idling has deteriorated. Rev the engine and its fine but release the throttle and it almost stalls - not quite stopping but rough idling and then its very lumpy even though the rpm is 8-850 with the engine juddering about.
All help gratefully received.
