Some problems with my car....

Post by Novajoe » Sun Aug 07, 2005 6:26 pm

Well my car is in limp mode right now. I pulled the codes and this is what I got:
P0016
P0138
P0344
P0340

There is smoke coming up out of where the shift knob is. I figure I smoked my clutch at the track today. But would it throw me into limp mode like this?

Can anyone tell me what these codes are?

P0016-CRANKSHAFT/CAMSHAFT TIMING MISALIGNMENT


P0138-O2 SENSOR 1/2 VOLTAGE HIGH

P0344-CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR INTERMITTENT

P0340-CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT


That's the codes your throwin....not sure what to tell ya on how to fix them, or what's wrong....but those don't sound like fun codes to deal with....

Thx. sounds like my timing's way off. The O2 I'm not worried about. That's prob just my header and head throwing too much emmisions at it. I guess I'll try realigning the timing and see if that does anything

Anyone think it could have anything to do with the nitrous? My plugs look fine and I'm running 1-step colder plugs with 93 octane.

Evil beat me to it anyways.... :tongue:

I wouldn't be suprised if I jumped timing. I've been beating the hell out of it lately trying to get some good times out of it at the track.

But does anyone have any ideas on what the smoke is coming out of the shift knob(aftermarket shift knob)? I'm thinking I smoked the clutch as it was slipping pretty bad on the way back from the track, but would it smoke through the shifter?

:withstupid:

You're not still driving it are you? Sounds like you should probably take it to a reputable shop.

lol. no I'm not driving it. I'm going to replace the clutch with a pt(it was coming anyway) and fix the timing. I looked around and checked some stuff out and I'm almost certain that's all that's wrong.

but the smoke through the shifter thing kinda bugs me. I've completely fried clutches before and that's never happened.
