hey my 93 Teg wont idle when the motors cold but when it warms up it idles fine. i was told it was the FITV so i took it off and cleaned and it helped a lil bit but still wont idle right...any ideas?

 

what about if u turn the idle air screw? or switch it out with another FITV and see what happens...

 

sup joey...well i have tried the idle screw and it didnt help much...i am goin to put another FITV that i know works on it tomorrow and i hope that works...

 

heh, if that don't fix it, just live with givin it gas to warm it up ha ha.....u goin to IFO with shane an everybody?

 

uh prolly if i can get a hold of everyone...all i have is like $20.
thats what ive been doin is just warmin it up but its really annoying after a while...

 

you shouldnt really need to mess with the idle screw unless you have some reason to idle higher than normal. Check the FITV again. inst there some sort of screw that could come loose inside or was that the IACV. I forget.

 

what you mean by wont idle, what rpm??

 

Wont idle as in it dies, or it just idles higher than usual?

 

it wont idle as in it just dies...i changed out the FITV out of my other teg and still no better.

 

vacuum leak?

 

You might want to check the coolant temp sensor as well. I am pretty sure it is supposed to enrich the mixture when it gets a cold signal from that.

 

it can not be vaccum leak, if there is a vaccum leak how come it work when the car is warm-up. engine coolant temperature sensor (ect) is one of the temputer sensors, and the one that go bad often.

 

the hose that goes to the EGR valve was leaking due to a rip in the hose. i fixed it and it idles on its own now. its bounces from about 850rpm to 1100rpm but it idles none the less...
