She must of heard that i need to sell her cuz she's acting up....
car was driving fine, pulled into neighborhood, put in neutral, let off gas and she died. won't idle unless i hold the gas pedal down...
interesting part is that my boost gauge sticks on 20hg vacuum and doesn't budge regardless of what i do to the throttle.
when i turned off the car, the vac gauge slowly went back to 0.
the boost gauge is T-d off of the fuel pressure regulator. do you think that's what went out?

help me out TR

 

drove home.
boost gauge moves normally during driving
BOV makes as much noise as it used to (which leads me away from vac leaks??)
the o2 sensor volt meter seemed to be bouncing through numbers normally, although it's kind of hard to tell
car smelled a bit rich while stopped at a light
i'm leaning towards the FPR

anyone else have any suggestions?

 

idle control motor? they like to go out when the temperature changes all of a sudden ive noticed.

maybe take the biss cap off and unscrew it to see if it will hold idle.

 

forgot to reply to this..... lol

turned the biss and bumped up the idle. now it idles fine
turned AC on and the rpms went up, so i would think the idle control is fine

 

I think she just doesnt want you to sell her! lol Dont do it. Tell the wife to get the minivan and you guys can switch off! haha. Hope you get it solved!

 

no.. she didn't, she threw a FIT on test drive.. see other post

she = GSX

 

i dont know what your prob is but when i replaced my iacv 2 weeks ago or w/e i for got to screw on the elbow hose and i stepped on it and it popped off and the boost gauge went pretty high and stayed like that until i turned it off and went down slowly like you said

just telling you from my experience
