M20 loss of power & other magical things
Hey guys,
I dislike posting about an M20 losing power because its been discussed at length, but alas I am going bananas.
The issue: Car has been driving great for the past 10k km. Went to Florida and back (from Montreal :D) and been a solid daily. Started one day and wasn't smooth. The car shivers around 2k rpm now and has lost like 30-40% of its power. It also blue smokes at idle ...randomly (I notice it at a red light but Ive had to drive it in the past week and it only blue smoked on about 3 out of 7 times I've driven it).
Things I've checked / changed:
TPS, ICV, AFM. I do NOT think it has a vacuum leak (breaks fine no hissing sound, had the issue last summer...). Also changed spark plugs. Spark boots are ok...one of them seems to spark sideways but I dont think thats a major issue when its shoved in (??).
Fun facts: Just had it washed. Right rear light stopped working. Left front blinker is on cocaine (300 blinks a minute). Doubt its related but heh. Out of ideas.
What ill test this weekend: Compression, O2, fuel filter.
Thoughts?
Many thanks
