Aftermath of EGR Cooler Cleaning Project

Sorry, yes it is 1.68kΩ I did 20k resistance test.

 

Thank you

 

I have not tried disconnecting the MAF and running it.

All the gaskets are in place and tightened pretty well with gaps.

 

Can I use a fog machine with mineral oil to test out leaks?

 

I just took off the intake manifold enough to reach the pcv and I saw the hose was connected properly but the pin was off the hose so I put the pin in place and put the manifold back. I’m looking to do vacuum leak test before I start the engine.

 

What location would I connect the smoke machine to do a vacuum test? I will definitely put a cover intake pipe so that smoke doesn’t escape out the air filter box

 

Sorry, Yes, tension clip.

 

Can any one please share Prius’s vacuum lines diagram?

can I use a fog machine with mineral oil to do leak test?

I’m planning to this next.
Thank you all for sharing knowledge!

 

I had WD40 only so I used it.

 

Update:

I tested vacuum leak test using a Gumout carb cleaner spray and I felt the intake manifold gasket isn’t good and also the egr pipe to intake manifold gasket.

- So I swapped out those two gaskets and TB gasket as well.

- Car used to rev high and used to up and down rpm at high rpm.

- A good sign is it’s not revving high now but it’s
Continuing to up and down the rpm and stalling the engine eventually.

- If I press and hold the gas pedal slightly, it’ll
Continue to stay on and feels normal and doesn’t present any misfires.

- I’m attaching few pictures of a suspicious spot on intake manifold I feel, can you please review it and tell me if it is normal and is how it’s supposed to be? This spot is below where throttle body sits. Zoom in for more clarity.

 

Hey guys,
Idling issue is continuing to happen. I drove the and it drives well. Good engine power and all no misfires while driving and engine is on. Only idling seems to be the issue. Car just idle while in the neutral/park mode. It’s shaky, noisy and dies.

when in the idle, I see that TPS reads 1.4% and if I turn on the AC it climbs upto 2.4%

maintenance mode TPS reads 0%

I tried removing the negative terminal on the 12v battery for 10min for the relearn process to kick in but it did no good.

I checked with multimeter and I’m receiving consistent 5v on the harness.

do you think the TB is bad?

 

I was able to do this test yesterday.

the issue still persists but teeee ti ti ti I hear I’m trying to rev it more. With the EGR blocked the throttle opened up a little more instead of 2% it open a little over 4%.
