Just bought a 2005 Sebring, need some help
#11
Had the fly wheel replaced. Runs a lot better. Still having an issue where it won't run if the hose from the pcv valve is connected to the intake. CEL is no longer on but it has a high idle rev. Could it be the TPS sensor or the IACV? Just cleaned the entire throttle body and IACV.

Both the throttle position sensor and the idle air control motor are involved in the computer's calculations to maintain idle speed. So one or the other or both could be involved, but there could be other factors, like a weak spark or fouled plugs or fuel injectors. If you can't get a hint from the engine codes (which might be present regardless of whether the CEL is lit), then replace things starting with the cheapest first.

Just an update, seems the timing was off causing the misfire. All hoses are now connected but still seems to run a bit rough. Mechanic says the engine may of been damaged due to running it with the timing off.
Recently the P0491 code popped back up. Anyone know the cause of this? Its a CA emissions car. Mechanic said its used to pass smog and shouldnt cause to much of an issue on how the car runs. Is this true?
