EJ k20a2 dies after pressing throttle ?
Ok, so I have been having symptoms of my car with extremely low idle when I start up ( 500rpm but evens out after a couple mins to 1k RPM), losing small amount of fuel pressure (FPR reads 40 psi instead of 45 where it used to be I believe), and my car stalls when I press the gas.
Here's what I've done so far:
Adjusted k-tuned hall effect TPS+New gasket (using multimeter on DC 20v. CT reads 1 & WOT reads 4.50)
Cleaned IACV+Wiped inside the sensor (The magnetic probe still spins but got a new IACV should be coming in soon)
New TB gasket
New Full synthetic oil change+oil filter
New NGK iridium spark plugs
New thermostat+coolant flush
New MAP sensor
Checked for vacuum leaks(none to my knowledge)
Checked for any leaks(none)
Checked for bad grounds(none)
Checked for bad fuses (none)
Checked injector pulse (steady)
Checked battery (12.40v)
Checked Relays (Good no burns, corrosion, etc...)
Reset the ECU after anything was done/tested
Purchased a new Walbro 255lph fuel pump today from Karcepts, and I hope its here soon. Have not checked for compression, or valve lash. My chain seems to be on their just right. I have No KPRO
If you have any ideas that would be great, thank you in advance
Mods:
Type R valvetrain
Type R camshafts
Type R ECU (PRC)
Short Ram Intake
Walbro 255lph pump
FPR

Re: EJ k20a2 dies after pressing throttle ?
Update: tried a new TPS from O'reilly, and it stopped my really low idle. But when I still press the gas it wants to die... Please help me... I've been at it for like a month now trying to figure this out, and its killing that I'm not able to drive it. Driving is a passion let alone a getaway from me, call it like a vacation when I'm just cruising. please HT help me out here...
Fuel pump, and IACV should be here this Wednesday, hopefully all goes well.

Re: EJ k20a2 dies after pressing throttle ?
I hooked up the ECU to my laptop and it throws a code for
IACV.......I don't have a IACV sensor I have the delete so idk.....
I will change the spark plugs and maybe coil packs but I know it's not that.....
It just won't rev past 2000rpm in any gear???

Have you disabled the iacv through k pro ? Try a new tps for your idle problem, I bought it from a auto parts store, adjusted voltage, and boom idle was good
