When I start my car it will idle quite rough at about 750-800 rpm. Once it begins to warm up, the idle smooths out but also slowly increases until it reaches about 1200-1300 rpm. After I drive it some, when stopped, it idles at 1300-1350 rpm. What the hell is the issue? It is much better since i got my new throttle body but I still cant pinpoint the problem.
Bad idles are tricky to diagnose.... and I haven't come across that problem yet.... How's your AFM? Is it dirty? Possibly broken? All cables and clips are plugged in?
I dunno, will check when I get home. It is all hooked up correectly though. I passed emissions this morning too, woo hoo.
hmmm i had a bad idle cuz of an air hose not connected to a piece correctly. will get pics of it for you later. might not be it but it helped me
It runs pretty well other than the funky idle. I am not too worried about it at this point, just more if an irritant. Maybei'm just too anal. :shock:
mine has a rough start sometimes like , builds up to 1500 , but 98% of the time is a 1st crank and go
will have that vaccum line pic up for you later tonight. sorry it is taking so long,. been preoccupied with school. yuck! :eew:
vacuum or intake leak. also clean out your throttle body to make sure the ICM isn't clogged. on the ge motor it is vacuum controlled.
hahaha i have the pleasure of doing woth. i work 7 days a week and go to school 3 nights a week. full plate for me right now! hahahaha sometimes i go crazy! :morons: :yernuts:
for me im replacing my poddy with another one that is built into with a heat shield etc , nice and encased , also im gonna be noob of the days what icm
My Trac does the same in the mornings ..actual most of the time, when it starts it revs to like 2k and then drops off and sometimes just dies out, chokes and sputters like not enough spark, i know its running SUPER rih cuz the exhaust just reeks of raw gas. And i get about 15mpg
heres a pic of the vaccum line that was unplugged on my gt-s and causing lots of idle problems. i still have a bad idle and the car will die if i turn the car on and off about 4 times within an hour. if i am runnng errands, its a bitch. here ya go, hope this helped or can lean to some help the three plugs in the square. the two with the orange line were the ones unplugged. now they are plugged and ide is ok. good luck
I actually took that 3-way out....I think it's because I took the C/C out and that left line goes to it....so I had to improvise....seemed to work ok...but maybe that's why it's not passing the etest..lol
I dont even have that 3 way. Hmmmmm...... I guess I need one for CC. That must be why I could never find where the CC vacuum line connects.
I still have not been able to figure this out. :wall: It seems that it may be the idle control valve?
