For a few months my gsr has been stalling out when i idle, it generally doesnt do it within the first 15 minutes of driving, but after that it'll be sitting nice at 700-750 rpm and suddenly beggin to struggle and die. the car runs fine otherwise, what should i replace or adjust? I tried upping the idle on the TB but no improvement. thanks

my friend ti3d in had the same problem, i dont know how he fixed it though. it sounds like it could be vacuum leak

 

yeah good point, i do have an S2 manifold on there. any other ideas?

 

any cels? hows the clutch?

 

use a bottle of fuel injector cleaner.

oh btw, a vacuum leak makes the motor rev higher, not lower.

 

when u are idling what are you at? you should be between 1400-1600, if you are lower, it might be an IACV (idle air control valve) problem. possibly clogged, but dont spray it out with carb cleaner it could damage the solenoid. to be honest im not sure the best way to clean it. but i would suggest diagnosing befor you just start taking things apart.

 

not so, could be iacv but 1400-1600 is really high, idle should be between 700-1000

 

1400-1600 when cold...

 

clean out the Tb with some carb Tb cleaner, you may have some build up to the IACV that can also be taken off and cleaned

 

is it throwin any engine codes?

 

idle when its not acting up is around 700-750 when warmed up, there are no codes. it semes like its struggling for air, it goes down to about 500rpm and then re-coups back up and does it over and over and then dies out. I just replaced the fuel filter wich was way over due, but no help. i'll take off the TB and clean it up.

 

just tell people you have some bad *** cams...haha

 

my buddy just had the same problem, he changed his fuel pump and it works now. that might be the problem. but then again he did a swap into a ek.

 

try cleaning the injectors with some wynnes fuel system cleaner

 

Yes try some fuel system cleaner and pull your plugs to see if there is any fouling. Test your wires if you can. Hell when's the last time you had a tune up?
