Turns off and sounds like if air was escaping
Asked by yannicrisantosAnswer
sounds like you have avacuum leak from your video. check the pcv hose to throttle body. and brake booster hose they may be broken r cracked. also check to make sure your air duct has no hole in it leading from air cleaner to the throttle body. you can spray choke cleaner around the intake if you can't find any leaks, ubt it shold bepretty easy as it sounds like a major leak.
Can you show me a picture of the pcv hose to throttle body?
here is a pic. it may be broken right at throttle body as it's plastic hose so it is aged and easily broken.
I found what was the problem but I don't know what is called is says pecv.
The item with the green arrow is what is wrong with it. Do you know the name of it?
that's the pcv hose, what i was tellin gyou to check
Yeah I took that off when the engine was running and it did the same so I'm guessing that's it would you happen to know if this is the part http://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-214-2296-Professional-Crankcase-Ventilation/dp/B0049ZHRO4/ref=au_pf_ss_1?ie=UTF8&Make=Chevrolet%7C47&Model=Lumina%7C465&Year=1997%7C1997&carId=001&n=15684181&s=automotive
any auto parts stor woudl have it and probably just as or cheaper. but teh plastic piece leading to the throttle body is very fragile and can break off at the throttle body so check that as well.
