Engine Off by Mikanoflex(m): 5:07pm On Nov 07, 2017 |
My toyota camry envelope light, the engine goes of when break is applied to slow the vehicle down, this happens in traffic light, slowing down on bumps or to enter a bend. Please I need urgent advice on how to go about it. Steps I have taken, the mechanic cleaned the fuel filter, increased the slow system, yet not solved...please help |

Mikanoflex:Do a pressure test on the fuel pump. |

Mikanoflex:Your idle air control system is blocked with dirt . The essence of the idle air control is to ensure the ecu is able to make adjustment by increasing inflow of air into the intake system in event of increasing load on the engine and thereby prevent stalling. Tell your mechanic to service the idle system and throttle body properly and don't forget to adjust the idle to factory spec. |

Mikanoflex:Don't let any Kareem complicate simple .My advice is to take to a knowledgeable technician that is verse in diagnosis to check for why before |

Mikanoflex:What value did you have on the pressure gauge? Or it was just visual gauge of how high the fuel went. As advised by another person, check out the throttle body too. |

timifakay:yea, it was just a visual guage of how high the fuel went. |
