Harlo.


Soo my car idles fine, but then the car is warmed up to operating temp.. and im driving casually.. and say im about to pull up to a red traffic light and i put the clutch in > the revs would drop below my normal idle (say around 650-700).. and car vibrates a bit more then usual ( cause revs are low and its closer to stalling).. and after half a second it would pick up to normal idle again...

So to clear it up.

Clutch in > revs drop to approx 450-500 > revs pick up back to normal idle approx 650-700.


Is this related to dirty sensor somewhere? spark plugs? fuel system somewhere? dirty im?/iacv? shit grounds on the car( i have a heap of shit hooked up to my battery, including a amp, a sub power cable ( which is not being used, so basically a 6/8g cable thats running from the battery to a ground point near the boot for no Fckin reason < does that fuk around with my grounds?), and also my HID's are hooked up to the battery).. Battery is a no brand generic pos.. could that be a reason?


Thanks!

If that wire isn't doing anything,lose it!!

The good thing with problems like this is,if ya wanna fix them,U will and learn a lot about ya car while doing it!

I would start with the TB,clean out the IACV,do that 1st,then go from there.

The IACV controls the smoothness of ya idle,so its always best to have the metal inside that thing SHINING!

Why not do these 2 things while ya there and ya car will love U for it and I'm sure U like going faster/smoother etc :)

Hope the power cable from the battery to the boot hasn't got a fuse connecting it.
