    Some kid asked me to race...

    At least brake boost it, and PRACTICE doing this. Press the brake and give it gas until the turbo spools and then let go of the brake and floor it. If you dont do that, you will lose.

    Motor knock? Camshaft?

    I have this at all temperatures, but seem to think it is around the tensioner area. If I rev it from an idle it makes the noise maybe 3 times in rapid succession then disappears as soon as its above idle. When left to idle it makes the noise intermitently, with one knock here and one knock...

    2,650 RPM Idle!!!

    Yea so far its not the maf, and not the vacuum brake booster. The only thing I can think of now is try closing the pcv valve tube and see if it will idle. Im still getting 16psi vac on the guage though. If you figure anything our marty let me know. This is crazyyyyynessss :eek: :D

    2,650 RPM Idle!!!

    Funny seeing you had a very high idle, I currently have a no idle. I have to give it gas to keep it running. The tps is correct, iac however i cannot set because the car doesnt stay running without gas. Its been a long time diagnosing this problem, with tlink readings and waiting to borrow a...

    Car wont run after alky install

    Wow, many similarities with my problem right now. The 175 iac, acting like a bad maf with maybe 400 rpm and stumbling. I can start my car fine but have to give it gas to keep it running or it dies in a couple seconds. I do get a temp reading though.

    IAC issues

    I did pull the IAC and shot the spring with a couple good shots of carb cleaner. I then gave a couple little blasts in the hole that it goes into, but not too much. The vacuum reads around 16 on the guage so it seems good to me. Back to the vacuum, I can hear what sounds like an on and off...

    IAC issues

    I did not go through the entire procedure because the IAC counts were not changing as I adjusted. The TPS reading changed obviously. Since there was no way for me to adjust for 20-40 counts I dont see how I could go through the rest of the procedure. Thats why im a little thrown off here, I...

    IAC issues

    Ok heres the scoop of my crappy idle. My IAC counts are at 175 and stay there, turning the adjustment screw in or out doesnt change anything except the tps reading. Even reving with the throttle linkage doesnt change it. It seems to me the car doesnt rev when its cold anymore. It use to rev...

    Challenge: Part Identification

    ok, the timing chain was checked and she's tight. It was changed a couple years ago from original stuff. When he did it, I guess its possible it is from the original parts perhaps, dropped when removing it or something.

    Power Window Install

    Hey there, I am also changing my passenger window motor. The instructions are great above, my question is that the instructions that came with my motor (Kirban) says to drill the rivets on the door itself. What are those rivets attached to, and do I have to drill them out if I drill holes to...

    Gas Prices On The Rise Again!!

    My next car may very well be a PHEV or Plug in Hybrid Vehicle. It must be plugin for it to have any real difference in gas purchasing. These things, that are only available from 3rd party venders as "kits" for a toyota prius or ford escape hybird are the best thing available right now. No...

    Every morning battery is dead

    My guess is the blower motor starts running, do you have the digital climate control ? Try unplugging the little circuit board next to the blower motor under the hood. Its in the top corner.
