i have a 95 si h/b. it idles really low...sometimes it even dies. when i drive the car for a period of time, check engine comes on and i guess the car runs on safe mode or something like that....the cars just boogs, like too much fuel. i tried checking what the code was but all it gave me was nothing i could read(the light just twitches...too fast to read). can anyone explain that or give me a solution to my problems? HELP...

 

Try pulling code again but clean the connector and pin with rubbing alcohol.

 

tried that...still the same. any other suggestions.

 

check your grounds

 

everything looks fine. another thing too is that most of the time it happens is when i'm driving it hard...and sometimes in the morning when i first drive it?! what the hell is going on with my car...................

 

open your distributor cap, check distributor rotor - if you see the metal part fried/rusted, it may be the problem.

 

Check vacuum lines. Vac leaks can cause low idle.

 

check sparkplug wires, rotor, distributor cap, vacuums. what code is it throwing??

 

how low is your idle?

 

it idles very low...like under 500 rpm. idles so low sometimes it dies?! i've check all the ignition and they're all good. ??????
