Lack Of Power
- Inspect induction system. Inspect for air leaks downstream of throttle valve. Inspect duct between mass airflow sensor and throttle body.
- Inspect throttle valve for binding and proper adjustment. Ensure throttle valve opens completely.NOTE: On Trionic T-7 Engine Management System, perform this test with ignition off for at least 10 seconds, otherwise Limp-Home Solenoid may engage and set DTC.
- Verify fuel pump is okay. Check fuel pressure and pressure regulator. Inspect for leaks or restrictions in fuel line. Check fuel filter.
- Check injector operation by individually unplugging connectors. Engine RPM should drop noticeably. Check opening duration. Inspect injectors for leaks.
- Check Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor.
- Verify Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor filament is not broken and burn-off function is working (if equipped).
- Check turbo system for proper operation.
- Check Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor operation.
- Check Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor operation.
- Ensure electrical harness, connectors and wires are not broken or loose. Check all input signals to ECM.
