well my car idles funny also but like max saying it surges alot. Stays below 1k but drops to about 500 a lot when sitting at light and such. There is a check engine light but it goes out when I press on the gas

OtakuRX 09-27-07 05:33 AM

Hey anyone here going on the Cape Cod run?? Want to caravan down?

TEZTnTUNE 09-27-07 08:44 AM

sounds like a bad idle air control valve. check power to the valve and signal back to ecu. it might have crapped out on u.

RotaMan99 09-27-07 09:57 AM

Does your engine rev up to about 2000-2500 on startup when its cold? If not, then you have either a bad BACV or a bad transistor in the ECU that controls the BACV.

One way to test this is to take the BACV off the engine, turn it over so you can see the little plunger inside and turn the key to the ON Position and you should see the plunger open and the BACV should vibrate since the ECU runs the BACV around around 180hz or something like that.

Here is a thread I started a while back when I was putting my BACV back on after having it off for abot 4-5 years :)

idle air control valve.
You deal with GM parts to often :) Us rotary gurus don't call it that! Bypass Air Control Valve! :lol2:

grade247 09-28-07 02:36 AM

yup it revs right up and stays there until it warms up. I know it looks like apiece of the cat was cut I think was part of the OBD II a little pipe coming out of the side of it I was thinking that had something to do with the check engine light

RotaMan99 09-28-07 02:06 PM

We don't have OBD2 or 1.

That little pipe is for the air pump.

SleepeR1st 09-28-07 06:04 PM

Hey, is there anyone by manchester/hooksett/candia that is willing to sell those flash-to-pass lenses right below the headlights? Mine are busted at the brackets and it doesnt look like they will be put on anytime soon :P

RotaMan99 09-28-07 06:21 PM


yup it revs right up and stays there until it warms up.
It shouldn't stay at around 2000rpm. I should only rev up ther for about 3-5 seconds and then slowly drop to around 1500 and the thermowax takes over. What RPM does the engine reach when cold? 1500?

RotaMan99 09-28-07 06:23 PM


Umm the car idles at about 1500 when warm, then after a short drive settles down around 1100-1200. I've tried adjusting the fast idle screw a little but it did nothing, i dont really feel inclined to ruin my car that seems to run okay. I would still like the insurance of knowing that everything is in pretty good condition.
Sounds like a vacuum leak , stuck TB plate, or bad thermowax valve.

grade247 09-30-07 11:19 PM

Hey guys no worries I figured out my electrical prob lol it was a damn fuse. but anyways no worries on the exhaust leak either cause I am getting a new cat and a 3" cat back. and I pickup up a set of 17X8 and 17X9 Rogamasters with a +45 offset and was wondering if anyone has any 1" spacers? and the front end I got is an RE Amemiya bumper with projector head lights.

grade247 10-02-07 11:48 AM

Hey guys I heard about a cape cod run a few days back and I was wondering. I went to a 240 swap meet on saturday and got to talking to a few of them and told them about the cape cod run and they all liked the idea. So I shot it if they would be willing to try and set up a NE RX7/240 meet and do a cape cod run maybe next season? They all LOVED they idea. The NE 240 forums are also sponsored by synaptic3 so that would be awesome let me know if you like the idea?

Ya I don't like jaffery, keene or ringe. I lived in Jaffery when I was about 7 years old. Those towns don't seem to have much of anything good. The roads are horrible and ringe, well I never knew Sears would buy a shack and call it a store.

grade247 10-07-07 12:39 AM

lol that is great and the only good about keene is the college other that that eh. I put and exhaust on my car and wow is it loud lol. I am jw I am going to be doing the 13bt swap and does anyone on here want a 13b, tranny, ecu, wiring harness, and I have a welded diff going up for grabs this is all out of a 90 FC just let me know or send me a PM

grade247 10-09-07 12:12 AM

does anyone in here have some spare used coils or stock spring they are willing to sell? My passenger side front tire is now rubbing on springs because they guy how owned it before me decided to cut the springs yes that is bad but he left the excess spring in on the strut so there is loose spring just floating around and it is destroying the inner wall on my tire... :(

5-Port-Hank 10-10-07 06:26 PM

Well, if I ever get mine back from the shop, I'll swing down to the Keene/Jaffrey area. I need to visit Autex anyway, my awesome auto-belts need a recall fixin.

sleepydave 10-10-07 07:34 PM

Isn't your FC a good running car? Why are you parting it instead of selling it whole?

I think I have seen your car a few times. Do you head up by Wellington Hill quite a bit? If its the same car I have seen, beautiful! My FD is having some small issues. I am not sure if its going to be on the road before snow.

grade247 10-22-07 11:34 AM
