2.4 Litre Engine.Not Well
I have a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am SE with a 2.4 Liter engine. A few days ago it started running badly and would need to pump the accelerator to keep it running. At 50 or 60 miles per hour, it acted OK. At low speed or just idling, it putt putts and smokes a light grey smoke. It appears that there is an oil and gas mixture emitting from the tail pipe.
This car has recently had complete front end parts replaced... ie, new axles, new spindles, new rotors and brakes. Also, new tune up, i.e. plugs and plug boots. Also, new 02 sensor and new catylitic converter. Now this rough running takes place. I'm just hoping it isn't a bad engine.
Any help would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Jim...
