I need a picture of the stock BOV setup. I'm trying to return the car to stock before driving it down to get some welding done. However, even after returning everything to stock (Or so I think), the car still refuses to idle.

I want to make sure I'm not missing anything, so if someone could post the OEM setup, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

 

I really need this ASAP. Unless someone can tell me why my car won't idle even after reinstalling all my OEM parts.

 

Idle issues are often caused by vac leaks, TPS misadjustment, maybe TB misadjustment... just search for your particular problem. In the case of idle problems, there is a TON of threads out there on that topic.

 

I've done lots of searching, and got my ideas. However, I can't imagine I'm missing anything else. Search didn't bring up any pictures of the OEM setup. I wanted to see if maybe I missed something.

 

Have you double checked all vacuum lines and intake pipe connections? There are a lot of them, some hidden under stuff like the intercooler.

 

Check. The only thing I was unsure about is the random opening below the BACV. About 6 inches or so down.

 

take a pic i maybe we can find it that way. i think the hole you are talking is on the acv it should be fine open but it is suppose to go to a pipe then the pipe goes somewhere in the bumper

 

ACV?? Possibly... I know I have the BAC hooked up. I'll check that today and get some pics up when I get home.

 

u have the stock bov recirculating into the the charge pipe right and not blowing out to the atmosphere

 

Correct, the stock BOV is plugged straight into the back of the intake

 

I checked and re-checked all my vacuum hoses, and STILL no idle

I'm really starting to get mad here. Ok, well I'm gonna go out and take some pictures. Can someone please identify what the heck would be causing this?

I ran the car down the street for 5 minutes when it wasn't idling. Had to keep my foot on the gas pedal, and it never idled, not once. I'm sure all my hoses are correct.

Pics in a sec

 

Ok first off. I smell exhaust or gas a lot stronger then normal. The car did a little better when I went out to start it, however, when I give it gas it sputters a lot before it revs or it will just die.

Here's the pics.

 

Sry the pics keep disappearing

 

how am i suppose to figure it out if they keep disappearing....lol

 

i'm gonna host em somewhere else

 

use photobucket

 

Updated pics...

 

is your boost sensor hooked to the vacuum nipple above the acv?

 

Yes, I don't have a "T" connect like some people, just one long vacuum hose going to the nipple.
