ugh, i've been here long enoughe where I can actually now say
search...
This has been covered a few times since I've been here, and probably tons more since I havent.
But instead of a useless reply, I will help.
It can be a number of things. THe most comon things that I've seen to this problem are extremley clogged cats. You can tell becuase overall performance is sluggish, especially accelerating rpms..
Or it could be your BAC valve on the dynamic chamber. You can take it right off and clean that sucker out. Douse it in carb cleaner for the lazy, but if you want to do a good job, take it apart by loosening the allen screw. Its metric, so don't use a standard allen key and strip the bolt, its on there really really tight.
Finally test it with a 12V power source. I plan on just using my computers power supply unit, as its 12V and it will work fine. You want to see the valve open and close very quickly.
