Gas modual? I worked in a mechanics shop and we never did that. Maybe he meant fuel pump
Yeah that's what I figured. The one error code that my car throws occasionally triggering the engine light is "System Too Rich - Bank 1" which has something to do with there being either too much or too little oxygen in the fuel (too rich is either "too much fuel" or "too much oxygen", but I forgot which it was). That code comes and goes and the light generally spends more time off than on, but the engine problems are a constant thing. I can work around them with some hassle so that I can "reliably" drive the car, but I can't operate the car in a normal manner and it takes longer to start it and let it sit for a while before I can drive it (problems only happen when the engine is warm/hot, but never when cold).
I'm not really explaining all the issues as I've done in the past, but my current projects include replacing the brake lines and the fuel filter. Other things that would be helpful for figuring out include:
- Finding out why the carpeting in my trunk is damp....doesn't seem to be any issues with the sealing
- Finding out what the popping noises are that come from the front left side of the car (sitting in driver's seat point of view), but I've had the suspension tested repeatedly with no problems. It happens most when steering.
- Finding out why the front left brake moans like a dying humpback whale.....my pads have those scrapers on them to alert me when the pads get low, but it's nothing like that. I'm planning on taking the front wheel off tomorrow to look at it. I have so far only replaced the rear pads and rotors since having the car, so I wouldn't be surprised if the front ones are running low.
