Hey everyone, as you can tell i am pretty new. i am having problems with my idle. i can start it just fine.... but if i dont give it gas it will die. i dont know what the problem is... does anybody have any ideas??

 

You'll need to specify what car you're talking about, as well as any details before suggestions can be given.

 

oops duhh i have a '88 turbo II. As for details... there isnt much i can say. i can start the car give it gas and have it running while i give it gas but once i take my foot off the gas it dies.

 

Vacuum/metered air leak or TPS issue can cause symptoms like that. There are links in the 2nd gen FAQ that go into detail about setting a TPS. A common source of a leak is at the plastic TID connected to the turbo inlet. They're usually cracking after 20+ years.

 

ok thanks ill look into it right away... but i still cant see links yet can you send the link to me in a PM please?

 

There's no post count restriction to see links. The 2nd gen FAQ is stickied at the top of this section, as well as the 2nd gen tech section.
