The light hasn't came back on but a week or two had a p0455 and went away and hasn't re came up. I believe it's a fuel or air issue

It's plausible but without having the car in front of me it's hard to say for sure.  Have you had it scanned for codes?

Partsbimmer1 if you could share some of you knowledge on another thing it would be much appreciated. So from what I can tell on my 323 I should have one line going from the upper intake boot to the brake booster. Now previous owner removed upper boot and replaced it with a metal pipe. The line that would have gone from the upper boot to brake booster is now just capped off with a mini spectre ait filter. Would this cause any vaccum issues at all?? I can't find any info anywhere.

I ment like do you think that could be it sorry lol...

Is this serious like for sure??

ECU reflash is needed.

Is this actually it??

Okay so I have a 323 at w.o.T the rpms starts moving as they should then they drop about 500rpm and go as they should. I'm leaning away from clutch as it's the opposite and when it first starts going it moves fine with the RPM. Here is a video any suggestions. This is 3rd gear wot watch the needle closly not the best vid.

never just trust the work someone else has done on your car. trust AND verify.

I can live by that.

Sounds like they weren't properly torqued to begin with. Oddly enough, I just had a spark plug blow out on my daily driver Honda about a week ago. Previous owner had replaced the plugs about 10k miles ago. Found another that was backing out too. Glad you found it before damage was done, I wasn't so lucky. Mine took the remaining threads out of the head and destroyed a coil pack. Ended up needing to get the head helicoiled.

Ouchhh!!!

Just bought an e46 guy thought leaky manifold I decided to check plugs one was loose. Replaces all plugs. Sounds normal now. Just concerned it may happen again or curious on insight

Update: well i should have listened when they said doubke check all fuses. Turnes out the fuse i replaced (28) was bad and i didnt notice it?  When i originaly replaced fuse 28(was blown) it didnt work at all still. Replaced with a 10a(calls for a 30a but thats all i had on hand) started up and worked great. Not to my surprise that fuse blew right away i will be buying a new 30a and enjoying my heat another day

Only fuse i see

Update: i swapped fsu with new one from autozone and noluck i can only find one fuse under the dash any info on where the other one is? Everywhere i look shows them next to each other. Helppp

That's not been my experience before but the fsu is the simplest part to replace if you want to start throwing parts at it.

Well i have been under looking for fuses 75 and 76 i can onky find one fuse under the glove box area i removed what i could and all i see is one larger 50a fuse that does not look to be blown i belive i am hearing a little noise in the area while my head was down there i was hearing an almost thunping noise and the car has been off almost all day. When i turn the fan on it does not work but i hear an ever so slight noise. Any suggestions on finding that other fuse or the noise i am hea

Not to thread jack, but owned close to 110 cars? That sounds like an obscure amount...

Yeah too many thats a rough number. But in that ball park lol

If it were the fsu then you would have blower action in the highest setting.  You probably lost your blower motor.  Was it making any noise before it failed?  ticking, squealing, etc?  I would check EVERY fuse with a test light before I replaced the blower motor.  There could be another circuit controlling the blower action that you have overlooked.

Iv been reading forums sll day and the fsu can fail and cause no blower action at all settings

E32 and e39 the same? Honestly there was little to no noise to indicate the blower was bad. I said abive there might have been some noise but the more i thinkof it any noise i heard was onsidered normal to me as iv owned roughly 110 cars.  But who knows going to have to get down and look

Forsure thanks.

It woukd make a little noise every now and then not anything concerning

Nothing at all. Just randomly stopped im leaning towards the fsu???
