please need serious help guys on my swap.
well.... i`ll start by telling you that i have an all motor ls/vtec in my hatch.
the problem is that it doesn`t seem to do good low idle.. (1000 rpms)
1- when i start the car cold, with the idle adjuster screw closed at all... it does the 1000-1200.. (regular) but when it warms up the idle goes down and the engine shuts off.
2- when i adjust the screw for idle correction i have to adjust it almost to 2000 rpms cold so when th engine warms up, it doesn`t shut off, but when i rev it and take my foot off the gas pedal the idle goes down almost to 500rpms for a while and then goes up to 1200 and stills until i rev it again... and so. but the problem is 2000 rpms, to a cold engine is not good...
so this problem is driving me nuts.
btw. i`m running no thermostat, and direct radiator fan if this has something to do... i don`t know what to think about this... and yeah i eliminated all the water hoses that go to the intake manifold, heater etc....
so any help please. i will apreciate it.
