Hello from Spain!

[632 Regal]

The idle is too low causing the slight miss/backfire. It almost sounds like an intake air leak somewhere. Have you cleaned the ICV and does it turn freely?

I don't have a 3.5 so I can't tell you where the purge valve hose goes to.

The video of the engine sounds like valves? Very hard to tell without hearing it in person.

Are there any codes or engine lights light on the dashboard?

all we have not seen is where it says' To the purge valve underneight the throttle ?? '' and the tube from the intake manifold ICV is not new

I'm still thinking vacume leak.

By the way I have just given me that I have two identical connectors. Agree that the canister valve. I have changed and then try them as the car goes, are both two pins, I have to check what color each wire carries. I only remember that one of them is yellow (you just put)

I have the V8 3.0 and there are also 2 identical electric connectors. It is possible these are switched?

Also you might want to disconnect the battery for 15 minutes to re-set the engine computer after you change anything.

I will try to monitor this thread more closely.

I cleaned the ICV and I think since doing worse, while it. A What do you mean with valves?

This engine has very few empty sockets. And those are reviewed and this has everything perfect.

Another thing that makes me, for example today, I notice that the engine speed does not accelerate, chokes, holds and paste explosions escape. It is unbearable. It also happens to me when I want to go from standstill creek but I play with the throttle. I will try a new ICV valve

Not always does this to me, but the unstable idle if it is always cold

It runs fine when warm?

The idle if it is much thinner. Today I passed a little throttle position switch and have the idle 1000 rpm. I do well, I think you have to have a distance from the throttle body butterfly 0.035. Correct me if it is not.

On my car the butterfly is almost completely closed, this is why we have the Idle Control Valve.

Guess the timing chain was set properly, also the valves adjustment?

That was my first guess but then I thought they were hydraulic... That would explain everything.

I will review the distribution chain. The car starts perfectly relationship will not if. Adjusting valves did recently sounds great

I thought that the lambda probe is not compatible. It is heated and when failure is more cold do not know if it will be related

[Javier]

A small offset of the chain will not prevent the car from starting but may cause the engine be rough. Also over/under-tightening the valves will do a mess. I hear a significant ticking there, my computer even vibrates in sync.
