Rough start
« on: Apr 27, 2009, 11:01:01 PM »
when i start my 22re (not at running temp) it runs fine at first. but after about 4-5 minutes when it starts to warm up the motor starts running REALLY rough. after driving on the freeway (to or from work) it runs fine. has anyone experienced this or know what it could be? :dunno:  thanks

it could be any number of things. from the little info you give whats happening is when you engine is no longer in open loop and at temperature something may be giving a bad signal. a vacume line or bad plugs.. air and fule are ok...(injectors or something telling the injectors might be the cause)  need more info milage and last time o2 sensors wer checked soforth

milage on the motor is only 13k on the block, head and internals. but everything else has over 300k. my fuel injectors i think are ticking too. new plugs and wires. it idles fine after i drive it a ways.

check your o2 sensor it may be a cheap fix.. rule of thumb start with the cheapest parts first... also go pick up a can of B12 chemtool throw it in your tank and run it through your injectors.. when its running rough what dose the exhaust look like smell like?

i put the B12 in my tank today. even if that's not the problem, it looked like good stuff. Napa wanted 70 something for the cheapest o2 sensor. seems expensive to me

well i did some thinking your check engine light would be on if it was an o2.... see how the b12 works and if it dose.. good its the fuel injectors or filter... if not it may be a head issue with a leaky oil seal. their may be oil leaking into the cylinder when its off and when it reaches its burning temp it sputters and burns off then runs OK.. double tap checking the plugs for oil and dark black.... other possibles next oil change let it set check for coolent, and if a buddy has one do a leak down or pressure check on each cylinder

inspect all of the vacume lines with a fine tooth comb. we will just do simple until i can get a better feel for the truck
