E6K for 85SE

Hi. I'm looking for some help with my E6K which I picked up used from forum member. I have a 85 GSL-SE with a new rebuild (lightly ported) 13B and although the stock ECU seems to be working (motor starts and runs well) – I can’t seem to get the car to idle consistently under 1K. The motor has new plugs, new wires, new distributor cap & rotors, new vacuum hoses and has about 4 hours of break-in time (at idle). This is my first ported motor so maybe I’m expecting too much.

I picked up the E6K hoping that I can obtain a reliable idle and consistent drivability. I’m not looking for gobs of power on a dyno or a track car. I’m hoping that someone can comment on my assumption that the Haltech is going to help with this. Although the E6K can do spark and fuel…my thought was to do fuel only. Any comments or suggestions? Thanks.

E6k needs a crank sensor signal to know when to fire the injectors. Which means you'd need a FC CAS, which means you'd lose your distributor.

If all the sensors are working, the stock ECU will obviously be able to handle the idle (unless you have a huge port). Make sure the motor is sealed up tight with no vac leaks, etc.
