I've posted numerous questions and I'm very tankful for the advice that I have received thus far. I'm so close to being finished to getting this car running properly, but I've run into yet another problem, and though I've searched and asked questions, I haven't found a solution.

My car will not idle. Even when the engine is warm. I've checked the TPS. I have no vaccum leaks. I've played with the idle. The intake sensor is hooked up properly. The car starts, but when I let go of the gas, it just dies. Now...I had to restab my CAS, because the timing was way off before and it ran rough. However, before I messed with the CAS, the car would hold idle fine, it just ran really horribly. I restabbed the CAS, and now the engine runs great, it just won't idle by itself...

It's been a year since I started this whole project, and I haven't driven the car in a year. I love my car, and I can't wait to drive it, but this one problem is boggling my mind and frustrating me to no end. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

 

have you checked your afm? sometimes this can be the cause of the problem.
good luck, hope you get her on the road soon!

 

check the BAC and the TB adjuster screw. Make sure that the screw isn't backed out completely and that the BAC is functional. Disconnect the BAC and see what that does...



edit: i could be wrong...

 

I don't have a BAC, took it off. The AFM is hooked up correctly. Now the throttle screw, I've tried screwed in as far as I could, and screwed out as far as possible, neither made a noticeable difference, though it made it huge difference BEFORE I restabbed my CAS. It sucks, cuz my car would start up fine before, yet it was barely driveable, and now I know it would drive great, I jsut can't get it to start up properly. Oh, and if I try to start the car after its already been turned on, it won't start back up unless I unflood it, though before I messed with the CAS, I didn't have to worry about this. My injectors have been recently cleaned, so I thought it wouldn't flood...

 

Any other suggestions? I can't think of anything else, 'cuz vaccum is fine, TPS is fine, AFM is fine...
