Idle Problem!!!

[kekilepep]

Hey guys

in the last 3 or 4 days my n12 has been having an idle problem
when sitting at a set of lights, the idle will drop to around 600, but then go back upto around 1100

does it constantly regardless of being warm or cold

It even got that damn low the otherday that she stalled on me :/
could this be a stuffed idle sensor or something ?


cheers

check you connections to the afm, idle control valve, and ecu.

also check ur vacuum lines for leaks, and also your inlet tract.
the fact that its intermitant makes it more likely to be a loose connector.

thats the thing
its not that intermittent

it does it almost all of the time when i come to a stop

hey i had the same problem
till i blew a vac hose of the turbo a few weeks ago
i pushed all the hoses down twice as far as they would go
and tightened the shit out of the clamps

it ran like a dream to adelaide and back last week and is still going well

sounds like she's out of oil
put some in
drive her down the road
HUGE smoke screen behind me, constant
pull over

got a stream of oil running down the front of my engine block
hmmm wonder where thats coming from
maybe the hole thats on the front side of my engine ?
