in some need of help
my car has been running just fine for a while now and all of the sudden all sorts of stuff goes wrong. just adding more check marks in the bank... ha. but anyways i need some help, whenever i am driving normal or getting on the gas whenever i push in the clutch to the floor and let the RPM's drop it just dies. hard. like no rough idle then die it just goes down. i have no idea what it is. i have pretty new vacuum lines and all of them are connected. i was thinking of just turning up the idle so it stays at like 1000 rpm but i have no idea where the idler screw is at. if anyone knows please share :) haha so i dont know what the problem could be. any help from you guys would be great.

I have never seen an idle screw.
ge or gte?? |
gte. i was just wondering if it had one. but i guess not. i was just trying to get it to rev a little higher, so how would i go about doing this?
|
there is an idle screw but i wouldn't screw with it yet .
i'd check all vacuum lines and read the engine codes you must throw a code when it dies like that check vsv values hidden under intake they are about 50 bucks if faulty they wreck fuel mixture , bad fuel mixture = bad idle |
N/A's have idle screws????
I'm all ears. I have been told enough that they didn't that i just worked around it and never really payed it any mind. |
Actually, both GE and GTE have "idle screws" they're NOT considered a serviceable item at all. There's a reason they're not even covered in the TSRM.
As a side note, I've seen people adjust the WAY wrong things before when trying to adjust the idle... and effectively doing so but at the risk of causing damage: dash pots, air regulation screws and my favorite..... over tightening the throttle linkages so the throttle plate is always partly open and the IDL switch is never closed. :dance: |
Gee..., let me run this buy you sinse I seem to have you here.
Upon start after heat cycle and it idles down. It had a miss. Now it seems the miss has gone after a bit of driving. I'm throwing the 31 or 32 afm code. But my shites new and I think I'm throwing it from a filter that is not dry flow and the old sup had blow by. I thought this may have been the cause but now I wonder that after driving if things aren't just seeting up propperly. Thoughts or comments? Sorry to thread jack. Not my intention. |
Whoa, try that again... and slower. Sorry, but it reads like a Chinese translation of a Russian stereo that's been translated into a French equivalent of English. ;)
I think I get the jist... same problem that we've spoken about a number of times previously? Well, same answer. Test the harness. Particularly the VS signal wire and VC sensor feed wire. |
