2G FIAV block off, fixed high idle, now causing another idle issue

[Misterflipster]

So yesterday i got the fiav blocked and now from a cold start i hold the throttle open and the car will eventually hold itself at 1k. However once i go to drive it and i put it under load, when i come off the gas it will die.

Other issue i have is that the car wont start after it warms up, im thinking its an alternator issue because it will run for some time and die on its own also. Dash lights flicker, i havent seen headlights flickering but yeah. I think its an alternator? My tuner suggested checking grounds (he believes the car might be relying on the chasis too much for ground??)

$900 would go a long way towards a nice tool set and parts.

Read up on the process, check the VFAQ, watch the YouTube Videos and ask questions.
It's a lot scarier before hand than actually doing it.

Agreed!
