it keeps going up and down up and down. it wont idle constant. any help would be appreciated. thanks!!! |
Are you getting puffs of black smoke from the exhaust with the rough idle?
Perhaps during your IC/radiator install(...mainly IC elbow area)...you accidentally pulled off the MAP sensor hose. So check your MAP sensor...comes off fairly easily if not securely tight or zip-tied...definitely roughens your idle as if car is chokin'. Also, what type of ECU you running now that you have a new IC? |

USER ERROR is normally the reason for these types of problems.
It is a learning curve! |
