Has any one ever had such a problem: The car fires up, Holds a high idle, Hop in go for a first second gear ride and immedietly when you push in clutch, the idle falls down and dies, No matter what I do, same thing. I advanced a tooth, came back a tooth or so on my cam sprocket, Increased idle, sometimes it will hold with increasing idle, but I'm not solving the problem, just conpinsating for a fucked problem, it never fails , it just wants to die. Checked my distributor, coil, wires, all vaccum hoses, sensor plugs all the way around, Hopefully someone has come across this, . I would very much so apprechiete any suggestions..

Thanks............10:19 pm, wed.

 

Try swapping out the Idle Air COntrol motor on the back of he manifold for one that you KNOW works... Or try unplugging it.. It'll throw a code, but if it fixes the problem, tah dah

 

check this out , I did just do that not swapping them out, but I unplugged it and no didderence in idle, Now that tells me thta the plug is not working properly, do you know where this plug gets its volt from, ever delt with this? Also throwing a 17, 7, and 6 on ecu.

 

17: Vehicle Speed Sensor. Does your speedometer work?
6: Engine Coolant Temp Sensor. Definitely could cause idle problems
7: Throttle Position Sensor: Another cause of bad idles.

Sounds like you have some plugs missing or shorted.

 

I thought 17 was a bad injector?
and 6 was a exuust manifold temp - EMT?
I swapped the whole intake manifold out and meraculously it worked although there is stilla slight idle issue, but the bitch runs, and im gonna get a scanner today. thank you for you r input.

 

well my car was throwing a code 16 and my speedo is broke but someone said that was injectors

 

Code 16 is Injectors. Code 17 is VSS.
