opti tps or aic Ok got my car back together after wiring everything up car ran fine for the first couple starts for 10 mins or so each time then it died. Took the icm and coil to get tested bad. Got new ones the started up with ease then dies after about ten minutes again. In order to get it fired I have to crank it a while and hold pedal to the floor could keep it alive above 1000rpms let it drop down after a while it idled for a min then die. Now I can get it to fire not stay running. I think it's opti. After a long nite of work on it forgot hose clamp on WP water got all over it im assuming. With car off but key in the on position opti was making like computer type noises. Your opinions?
Maybe he wants to know what computer type noises from the opti are ?
If water got on it from your water pump that would be highly suspect for your issue. But if the car stays running until warmed up it could just be on its way out. Was there an original problem before you worked on the car ?

Don't know how to explain the noises just like glitching I guess you can say. Opti I just bought could be a bad opti from the get go. Lucky its lifetime warranty. I'm thinking its opti just wanted to see if it was a sensor. Yea car ran tranny went out
