My 84 gslse has a pulse
Short story:
My car has a pulse. It's fuel injected, when I let off the gas it drops to about 1000rpm then bounces up to 1500 rpm then down and continually does it....sounds like it has a pulse. The long story below:
I cleaned my engine bay 2 days ago then the car wouldn't start. It was just flooded. During the trboule shooting process we noticed that the Distributer was full of carbon dust and the center pin broken. So I replaced the rotor and the cap. Also while trying to start the car my friends dad fired A little ether into the car.
I just did the standard de-flood process for the car after all that and it started fine. However once I got off the highway and slowed down I noticed the car had a pulse when I let off the gas.
Any ideas? I'm too broke to bring it to a mechanic right now.

Definitely look into the tps. This kid I know had the same thing with his 88' (I know fc's) and his pulsed the same as yours. Mine actually pulsed like 1500-3000.

I had this happen to an early model Maxima after cleaning the engine. I found water in the connector to the TPS (throttle position sensor). Cleaned it out and I was good again...

.....Seems to have gone....I cant get it to do it now. I guess I can get back to dry humping my car now w/o being turn off from it's surging.
Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Yes i know that this is an SE. I have an SE and 2 GS's when my SE had a TPS issue. i used the tps off of an old carb. The TPS is the same but you have to remove the sensor from the carb bracket and install it into to the Se one. It worked i had no more pulse in the low RPM's. FYI club forum.
