Idle Is Whack

00SoSlow · September 6th, 2006, 07:09 PM

I tap the gas, and my idle runs up then drops to 500 and goes up and down for a lil bit then returns to normal after 5 secs or so

is this becuase i have so many aftermarket parts with no tune to have them all work together or what is the problem

probably iac

00SoSlow · September 6th, 2006, 07:44 PM

it also seemed to do this after i put my intake on? is that anything i could have budged?

AtlanticBlue99 · September 6th, 2006, 07:46 PM

the MAF

00SoSlow · September 6th, 2006, 07:47 PM

would i need to clean it or what could the problem be with it?

AtlanticBlue99 · September 6th, 2006, 07:50 PM

not sure man. does the car run strong through all the gears?

00SoSlow · September 6th, 2006, 07:52 PM

it seems when i shift its a harder change but other than that it runs great... its just the idle is wierd when i tap the gas... idk i guess id have to tune it or just drive it the way it is

AtlanticBlue99 · September 6th, 2006, 07:55 PM

when did it start and what have you done right before it started?

00SoSlow · September 6th, 2006, 07:57 PM

i really noticed it after i put the intake on... i reset the computer and all needed, i don't know if it was the extension i put on to make it fit around my smog pump

you won't need a tune after the cai... did you plug back in the IAT sensor... does it do it when in nuetral in motion or only at a stop? when the idle is fluxing does it seem like it is bogging some?

yes when it drops down seems like she wants to die out but then it only happens when i tap the gas and every once and a while when i come to a light
