Hello gurus in the house. Please what could be the cause of breath seizure in my car. Suddenly in motion it will drop acceleration and if I try to accelerate more it won't until I put off the ignition and restart. I have checked the fuel pump and even replaced it. I have replaced the 4 plugs and cleaned the filters. Please kindly come to my aid.

What sort of car do you drive? Have you tried reading for trouble codes already? Try and check your catalytic converter for signs of blockage.

Sounds like asthma. Try putting two Ventolin tablets into your fuel tank.

why do some of you guys behave like an immature elements online. If you really do not have something positive or relevant to contribute why not distance yourselves. This kind of silly behaviour makes the country loose it's values in terms of growth and you are the type that shout the country doesn't develop. Instead of you to seek for knowledge and grab it you are here behaving like a mumu. tongue tongue tongue

This your again o tongue


If this happens when the car is all warmed up and done some distance, then you might probably have a blocked catalyst like someone hinted.

In all, scan that vehicle. It will save you the stress of blind fix

ok I see, the throttle is the one attached close to where the nozzles are beside the ignition manifolds.

The morning the thing happened, the car was fairly OK. The exhaust was dishing out gas but I noticed that the car had lost some driving force then while in motion, power dropped seriously and that was it. If it happens to a learner, he will force the car to drive a long distance and of course, the engine will give up. My car runs like crazy since I removed the blocked mass of metal with tiny holes.

To know if your catalytic converter clogged or exhaust blocked. Put your car in drive, then press the Throttle to move, if you hear any knock sound from the engine at the initial movement but goes off as you drive faster, your catalytic converter is gone. Mostly the one close to the manifold.
I once experienced this and after I removed the upper catalytic converter, it disappeared,but expect a little louder sound from your exhaust after that.

Yes, you are, and no correct head tech should be comfortable with that. I wouldnt want you fiddling around me. Just carry your kaya and go.

But i think most of them wouldnt mind cool

Your camry will be fine.
Re: Toyota Camry 2004 Seizing Of Breath by boldx(m): 5:18am On Oct 28, 2019
I always have a scan tool in my car for the past 5 years. All the scan I did never showed me the exhaust was blocked. I wonder why? But it showed my fuel trims were all on + 10 to + 30 when the car was revved.

Is your check Engine light on?
If you have p0420, it points to your catalyst being bad so remove the catalyst especially the one close to the Manifold. Then you will need an oxygen sensor defouler for the bank 1 sensor 2 in order to stop p0420 code from coming up again.

Did you buy this car as a Nigerian used? Maybe the check engine light has been taped over or moved.
Scan the regardless of the absence of check light.
Check if you have a vacuum leak. Maybe you have gross air leak somewhere along the intake.
My 2cents though.
Re: Toyota Camry 2004 Seizing Of Breath by vinzita1(m): 8:02am On Oct 31, 2019
I bought it as tokunbo
I was told it has exhaust problem which was fixed.
Then I notice the sound of which I was told it will disappear.
The sound reduce slightly but that grumbling thick sou d is their.
When driving around vicinity, it won't surface, but when accelerating for speed or climbing a hill, the sound will surface.
