Vibe GT no Lift

Post by Tae1999 »

Hey guys new to the forum, I was wondering what issues could cause my 05 Vibe GT to not have lift. I have a P0340 for a cam sensor, a P0171 for a system too lean, and a P0136 for an O2 Sensor B1 S2. If there’s anything else that can cause this besides this plz feel free to tell me. Need all the advice I can get. Thanx in Advance

Could be that the codes are keeping it from hitting lift.

Among those here who have had lift problems, the more common issues that have caused 2ZZs to not go into lift are the oil control valves (OCVs) and filters, and lift bolts.

See viewtopic.php?p=497734 for one discussion about the OCVs and filters. Pretty sure there are other threads here about them. The screen filters can get gunked up.

There's a good youtube on changing the lift bolts on a 2ZZ at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kg1CvcrYegw. If they wear too much they can break.
