just swapped in my first motor I have ever built, z6 with a y8 intake mani- and b18a throttle body.......the thing idled at like 4000 rpm. soI tried to turn the idle down with the idle screw and got it down to like 3600. I figured something had to be wrong and the only thing I could think of was the bashbot opening up the throttle body so I disconected the vaccuum line that goes to the bashbot and now it idles fine except it dies when it is cold. I think I am gonna just run the thing without the stupid bashpot. Was there a possibility that the bashpot was bad?
I am pretty sure I had everything hooked up right. I had all my vacuum lines just like that one link to the y8 swap on http://www.geocitys/joeyp... something like that sorry I don't got the link...any help would be awesome guys thanx

 

try cleaning the evac.that dashpot thing i dont run on my t/b ethier.

 

now that I don't got the dashpot in...it likes to die like when I let off the throttle when I am downshiftin between shifts at lower rpms......any suggestions

yea on the tb there is that lil screw on the bottom of the throttle cable wheel... adjust that down a lil bit and see if that helps it

I did....I tried to get that but it was definetely the bashpot that was makin go to 3000.....but I think I got that little screw where I want it but I dunno.....I think the problem might actually be in my dizzy...I throw a code 9 but it never has had problems until recently....long story on this damn code 9.....

 

well i was reading your other post about the dizzy.. are you sure you wired it right since you are running the jk harness? im running the same and i had that problem for a day because i had 2 wires switched around.. double check wiring to the obd1 distrib plugs
