Hello!
Its nice to find people in your area with the same intrests, so thank god. I hate to interupt the flow of this thread but i have a perplexing problem. I own a 87 TII and just preformed the TB mod, Removed the "Rats" and did the TID mod. and short and sweet it runs like crap now. Everything is connected as far as i can see but the f'n thing will not run right. Rough idle, step on the gas and it bogs down, edge it up will bearly rev past 4k. I have been checking for leaks all over the place and can't seem to find any, i have removed the UIM like three times and still nothing....any help would be apriciated, i live in Richmond VA in the fan.

 

sounds like a really bad vacuum leak to me.Take a can of carb cleaner with the car running spray it all over the manifold,mainly where it bolts up and around the vacuum lines,the idle should pick up when its sprayed into the leak.This should give you a basic idea of where to look for the leak at.

 

thats exactly what i thought, but i have gone over the entire car with some cleaner and can't find anything. this is exactly what happens. I start the car, revs then cuts. I start it again and it nudge a little onn the throttle and eventually i can keep it going, rough idle about 700-900. I then step on the gas it bogs down and my A/F gauge goes negative fuel, what i mean by that is the gauge no longer reads anything, it goes bellow the last lean mark. I let off on the gas and it jumps up to high stoic. the back to below lean. if i floor it, it bogs down and then slowly and i mean slowly revs up will struggle to pass 4-5k, during this entire time A/F gauge reads below lean. so i am a little worried to run it. arrrrrggggg! stupid *** problem.

 

I would check the AFM plug,make sure its connected and disconnect it and reconnect it.sound like somethings not getting a signal that the car is recieving air.

 

just out of curiosity, what are the part numbers for the spark plugs for an 88 non turbo. I can't remember.

 

Ground controls going in on Saturday, yay! Boost gauge and gauge pod need to hurry up and get here . Anyone up for short pump friday? I'm going for sure, and my friend with the silver WRX is coming (he's done a lot of work since the meet). I'll have the cam as usual, looking for footage.

sorry bout that link...dont know where it went, i saw it on the ne rx7 forum list...oh well

 

Well i testes the AFM and it checked out set the TPS 1.1-4.4 they checked still would not run right, so i pulled off the UIM again, and checked the injectors, both secondarys where spraying for start up, put the whole thing back together and now it will start with a nice jump to 3000, then back down and nothing dies out. Well you can imagine i am a little peeved right now, any gas and the car bogs down and dies, i really have no freaking clue what to check next, I can't get the thing to idle worth a damn, so i can't check for any leaks. I am really frustrated. If anybody lives in the richmond area i would buy lunch, dinner whatever, lots a beer, i got a hot tub what ever, Help please!!!

 

tested not testes

 

also whats the haps with Short pump? meeting? me and my friends useually cruise around on our bikes during the weekend, it would be cool to meet anybody who f's around with RX-7's, let me know.

 

short pump mall in front of (i think) dick's sporting goods at 7:45 or so. Josepi, got anymore info? You're coming friday right?

~brian

 

Yup, I'll be up there this friday, anyone is welcome to come so long as they don't act like they're in highschool. The info is a few pages back, I don't know what more there'd be!

EDIT: It's not infront of Dicks, just near it. All you'd have to do is show up ~7:50-7:55p and you should see a line of nice cars that stick out parked near the back of the lot...then everyone migrates towards starbucks if the weather is nice, or into the food court if it's rainy out.

Changed out my tranny fluid and I'm now using synth instead of mineral, huge difference when cold, and noticeably better even warmed up. I was going to do the hydraulics last night too, but the clouds started rolling in...

 

Plugs: BUR7EQ & BUR9EQ

 

But I am in high school .

 

i kicked highschol in the groin, my car is dead but my bike is alive and i would love to meet any and all, so if its cool i would love to drop by on friday.

 

It's all cool, as long as you don't come off as some asshat ricer, you'll do fine.

Oh and bring money for whatever, ESP IF WE GO OUT AFTER. Two or three weeks ago we ditched this one kid who ordered a meal and a drink then all of a sudden forgot he had no money. Beer is pricey enough.

grendel_2000 where abouts town do you live? I could stop by after work (VCU) tommorow and take a peek at the car.
