» lckychrms515 - "Chuggle"


I have a 2000 Chevy Malibu that "Chuggles", as I have seen people call it - and its fitting....it does it mostly when I am idling at a stop light. I recently replaced my intake manifold gasket because of a leak there. What else do I need to replace/clean/fix to help end the "chuggles"?? I am rapidly approaching 90,000 miles (at about 89,000 at the moment) and will be having my plugs and wires changed shortly. I also replaced the fuel and air filters when I had the manifold gasket replaced. Any ideas on what to do next?? I appreciate it!

Well your problem is your catalityc converter. At least that's what our problem was. Only now we are finding that something else is causing that part to go out very fast. Well let you know when we find it.
