Issues keeping the car running, stalls when you come to a stop!
Issues keeping the car running, stalls when you come to a stop!
Ok, I got the car to stay idling today (it used to die when it went into closed loop)
Now the problem is that it dies when you say stop at a stop light. The RPM's drop down to about 500, then it dies. Now, if you tap the gas a little (once they drop down to 500), it recovers and is fine.
Any insight on this issue? Would mainly like to isolate if its a mechanical issue or a tune issue (tune from PCM4LESS)
Here's some info on the car...
355 CID
ATI P600B 2.65" Pulley (12PSI)
Accel 44# Injectors, ATI Piggyback Fuel Pump
Random Tech Y-Pipe
Flowmaster 3" Cat-Back
SLP Firehawk Rear End
SpeedPro Powerforged Pistons (~9.2:1 CR)
Eagle H-Beam Rods
Scat Crankshaft
1 3/4" Jet-Hot Coated Headers
Arizona Speed & Marine 52mm TB
PermaCool Oil Cooler
BeCool Aluminum Radiator
Comp Cams 1.5 Pro Magnum Rockers
Comp Cams Titanium Retainers
Comp Cams Pushrods
Comp Cams Cam 214/224@0.050" .530/.567
3-Angle Valve Job
Spec Stg 3 & Fidanza Flywheel
MSD 6AL
Thanks!

Re: Issues keeping the car running, stalls when you come to a stop!
Your Idle Air Control (IAC) mounted in your throttlebody is the device to maintain your idle. The control might be faultly, the passages in the TB may be clogged or the harness to the IAC may be damaged.
Re: Issues keeping the car running, stalls when you come to a stop!
Accell's have a rep for poor idle. I had some myself and noticed a huge difference going to Lucas/Delphi ones. Have you cleaned around your throttle blades lately? Sometimes carbon/dirt etc...can keep the blades from fully closing.
