I had a post earlier asking about an idle problem and the only response was from thestealth (Thanks), after looking at the throttle position sensor i talked to some other people and they don't think that is the problem because the car runs fine if there is any load on the engine? so i'm lost, i haven't been able to drive it and after 250+ bucks and 1 month later it is still exactly how i bought it, if it runs better warm with the Idle air servo unplugged, what could be the underlying problem? The Idle air servo is new. Also thestealth told me the basic idle speed screw comes from the factory preset, when i got the car it was tightened as much as it could go, does anyone know what the stock preset is? How many full turns from tight down do I turn it?
thanks for any help i get!

 

I don't know a ton about these cars but I have been working on one and from what I read above...maybe Air Intake Control Valve, or MAP or MAF sensor??? If I am not mistaken there is also a sensor that makes the car idle up when the A/C is on.

I hope that helps a little.

 

Thanks, i just got in for the night, but i will check it out tomorrow.

 

oh, just another quick thing, would the car still run fine under load, cuz thats what it does, runs like a champ out on the streets, but idles like crap, but i will look into the MAF, MAP sensors tomorrow, Thanks again

 

hey allyntabet, could you post a pic of where the map sensor is located?

Thanks Man
