Sputtering idle
Hey guys,
So my 5.9 just made a trip from SF to LA so it seems to get the job done. Problem is, the check engine is on and the code is 233, engine power derate or engine may die....
The two mechanics I took it to said it's probably the fuel injector due to a sputtering that is very noticeable. Quite costly to replace.
My question is, has anyone ever dealt with this, it seems to drive fine, gets the same mileage, shifts ok, but when I'm coasting to a light or stop sign it put put putters and then gets into a normal idle once I am almost fully stopped.
Had one mechanic say it could fine for a long time, not sure if their are things I can do like cleaning the injectors etc?
Anyone got any ideas?
