I have recently changed my taken out and cleaned my injectors ..
After cleaning the injectors the car defiity runs smoother..

But now
my car does not start as clean as it use to (bap bap bap bapvroom)..
The revs drop heaps when i break to proabably about 500rpm.
The problem is less noticable when the car warms up.

Ive reset ECU, checked vacuum leak, reseated all injectors, looked for manifold leak...nothing else was changed..
Ive read so many similiar cases and there solutions were like valve clearence changes and fast idle screw adjustment or even the iacv..nothing of my car was really touched in relation to the just mentioned. ill check my iacv and my fast idle screw(if i can find it)

What could it be? shit injector cleaning job?
Could it be my ignition timing.. ?

cheers

check you fuel pressure, look for vacuum leaks, fuel pressure regulator.

thanks guys....
i tried cleaning the iacv again but this time i removed the component completely../.
I did it and then it started fine.

It idled smoothly..!
BUT i couldnt acccelerate..
Everytime i accelerated my idle would drop so badly that it would stall..
I heel and toed it to hanny... and he thrashed the acclerator cable to clean the guk that was left..
All done..

Thanks guys!
