The part of this that really pisses me off...

She either idles beautifully and doesn't run worth a ****...or she runs pretty decent and will not idle. I'm not even going to attempt to diagnose the idle problem because it's so random I can't describe anything that's a constant other than it dies.

However, for some reason she's gotten to where she doesn't run worth a damn while cruising. She runs from 1k to 2k rpm, accellerates roughly, then falls back to 1k as though ignition or fuel is cut. No boost. At first I though boost leak but the turbo never spools and it's too constant. Though vaccuum leak, but I can't figure out where it'd be...I've looked pretty thoroughly.

Lost basically...

that one pissed me off even more...lol...headgasket was blowing, dme was acting up (not just the relay), fuel pump worked sometimes, rust was eating it apart, and it was slow. I have all that with this car but it's at least fast when it works :P.

Sometimes...just sometimes...it seems like my compression pops back to normal, all the electrical gremlins disapear, by turbo frees up, and the planets align and she's just stupid...
