kaijun Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 My lovely landy will lose power sometimes in the first five minutes after I start to drive. When this happens, no light is on or flashes on the instrumental panel. Even If I step down accelarator, it lacks power, it is like fuel is not injected, the engine sounds hm, hm, then it comes back to normal after a few seconds. This problem always happen at the beginning after I start driving. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierrafery Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The EGR is still on?... oil at the ECU red plug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaijun Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 The EGR is still on?... oil at the ECU red plug? once upon a time I have cleaned oil at the ECU, it seems better. I will do it again. I wonder how it causes the problem just at the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierrafery Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 don't keep wondering, replace the injector loom ASAP, that's how it behaves with oil ingress and it can be worst if you dont change the loom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaijun Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Thanks! I changed the injector loom and cleaned oil at the red connector at the ECU, there is no oil inside the ECU. But it still happens once a week. I guess there is air in fuel at the beginning once it starts. Maybe the air is sneaked from fuel pump, I don't know.
