Low idle and dies(doesn't always happen)
Hey guys,
Rarely happens, but when my car idles for 5 minutes it bogs down and dies. Then I start it up no problem.....this only happened twice.
Also, yesterday my tank was near empty so I went to the gas station to fill up. Once I was done filling up I tried to start the car and it wouldn't start. I cranked the engine over 4-5 times(tried this several times). On the last time I pushed the gas pedal too and the engine started to rev so I pushed the peddle down a bit and held it at 1500 rpms(but if I let off the pedal it would feel like it would die).
I held it for a minute like this and drove off....after that the car was fine.
Any ideas what it might be? Do you think the tuning has to be tweaked a bit more?
Thanks.
My Setup:
T3 turbo
440cc injectors
Chipped P28 ecu
Uberdata (Tuned, not fully though...going back this friday to get vtech and boost portion tuned)

Re: (Turbo E)
