    the crank sensor is a 1000 miles old, find it hard to believe its that. the maf you can try a jy one pretty cheap, aftermarket mafs suck on our cars, so stay away from them.

    Starting a new threads isn't going to help.

    Honestly you are at the point of needing more than 2 eyes on this problem. We can only offer so much help over the internet and without being there in person, it's very hard to see exactly what is going on.


    It might be time to take it to someone to get looked at if you can't figure it out yourself.

    Here's a video it might help. Stalls off around 3:45 then again abt one minute after i try again. Perhaps the clicking noises after have something to do with it. Arent codes p0418 and p0411 related this?https://youtu.be/wWdxNgZvs8o

    sounds like a monster vac leak. and you got air pump codes, check that thing out.

    The vac lines from booster to engine were not clamped the elbow connecting air pump hose to air box is cracked where it connects to air pump it doesn't stay locked in. stayed on longer died after 7 minutes wouldn't let me rev over 3500 everything below was clean.

    Threw me a new air injection code p2432

    junk yard or the dealer maybe. dealer will show you a break down diagram so you can show him where that part came from.

    if you stop hearing the hissing sound it should run smoother and stay running. thats a huge leak you got.

    I think that hissing may have been the old serpentine belt running. If it was that huge a leak wouldn't the carb cleaner have easily been sucked in and made engine noise? I never heard anything.

    thats a vac leak, not the belt, i heard it back fire out the leak too when it first fired up. if you spray that elbow there car running i bet the rpm's jump up.

    I've been thinking today if perhaps I should buy a air pump from the jy since I've been getting so many codes related to it, or could that cracked lock on the connector elbow be the cause alone? It would kind of make sense though since p2432 specially mentions air flow.

    No luck with finding that elbow. The only gp in the yard doesnt have this air injection part, go figure. i did make sure that part was making perfect contact throughout it running when i started it. It ran longer than usual but still ended up stalling.

    When it was running i couldnt go over 3500 rpm is this normal when the car is parked?
