So been running for a few days, has issue with idle very rough till I hit higher rpms.
Had to bypass a.c. Pulley as it kept kicking belt off.

Planning to clean out throttle body, replace coil pack and cables

Any suggestions?

Go to vfaq.com
They have they info you need to test the ISC, adjust the BISS, check you TPS, and your FIAV.

Thank you for the suggestions..

Still investigating issues.

Recently had to replace water pump ... and found that moron before me had put thermostat in backwards lovely right.
Cleaned out Throttle body still no change. Right now my suspicion is the IACV

 

[Dragnous]

Also I find that the Gas peddle is extremely sensitive. 3rd Gear going 40 is like 1% depressed.. extremely light tap... What is best way to adjust it

 

[Dragnous]

Update: Took apart the throttle body cleaned it up and whom ever did the replacement last went crazy on the RTV and was in all the intake ports .. yikes.. Also the IAC was toast.
Put pack together and running much better. Idle no longer sticking got it to idle at about 1k.. anyone know if this is good idle?

Fixed Idle Issues and now back to 1k RPM idle... Finally nice to drive with that in mind.

Next Project save 350 for new Rack and Pinion, outer tie rods ends, sway bar.

Well, blew the Rear main seal. Yay me.

hey this is shout out to anyone with extra parts.
Looking to get a new 420a engine. Just a used ( non rebuilt ) This is my daily so need to get it back in order quickly and cheaply .

Also Does anyone have an extra decent clutch kit used! (Figured since I am dropping the transmission I might as well replace that too)

Sadly Ive looked this car over and it seems it needs more work than I really want to put into it since I want a GST or GSX. So gonna limp it along till i get save up some money to get the one i want.

Well, Dropped the Transmission, waiting on Clutch kit and Real Main Seal to be delivered and Hope to put back together.

Poor little DSM. Needs a paintjob or at least some plasti-dip to look smooth. Then again, it's hard to find these nowadays.
