Default Question about sound after Head Gasket fix.

Alright I just put a new gasket on D15. Everything is connected, and the car starts up instantly. Now there is a buzzing sound that seems like it is coming from the throttle body. I'm not sure what it is, and everything is connected.

Another thing if car revs to high RPM's then you drop it, then instantly give quarter throttle and hold it there the car will eventually stall and die.

The car does go into gear and will move. I'm getting dark/rich smoke out the exhaust but that is expected.

Pretty sure it is something with throttle bod, but second idea was intake manifold, but it really doesnt sound like it is that.

Also I already moved the idle up, that didnt help. Any ideas please let me know. Thanks ahead!

i think your tps and your map sensor plug are switched around.......

mine did this and that was the problem. The plugs look identical and try switching those around

That didnt seem to do the trick. I'm honestly not sure if I have them both correct still.


The car is idling fine now. I just have no power. I can get the car out of the driveway about 20 feet and it'll want to die. Getting it back requires higher RPM's to move at all.

Please, any other ideas, or questions. I really have no other ideas...

Awesome the map sensor and tps were switched around. Now the car is driveable. I'm still getting the idle problem now after I drive the car a little bit. Also the Throttle Body is buzzing like crazy. There are no vacuum leaks that I can find.

Any other suggestions?


Thanks for the previous stuff, it really helped
