high idle

[boostedinthe843]

i have searched first before everyone whigs. my car when i crank it up idles at anywhere from 1500 to 2300, once its warmed up it stays right around 1100-1300, my bov is recirced. so i know thats not it. my egr is unhooked could this have anything to do with it? my mods are listed on my profile

You didn't search enough.... Did you try the BISS screw?

 

[boostedinthe843]

yeah checked that. when i bought the car the guy had the bov venting to atmosphere, i reconnected it and idle went down to how it is described now

wasn't it lofty that just posted a thread about something like this yesterday .Use the search button you'll find most of the information you need now and will need in the future has already been asked.good luck

1100 is still too high for an idle, did you adjust the BISS with the car turned off? Also it could be the o-ring behind the BISS is bad and letting air by, raising your idle. How warm is "warmed up". It just might not be hitting full operating temp.

There is a screw between the TB and the intake manifold, Tighten it up while at idle when warm..My GSX has the egr still there and does this, but mine idles when warm at like 900. Tomarrow I will put a plate on the EGR and see if It does this, and let you know...OK? But still try the screw.

You're talking about the BISS screw as mentioned above. Plus when you do this you should shut your car off, adjust the screw, turn the car back on, and adjust as necessary, otherwise the ECU will get in the way of what you're trying to do.

I hate idle problems.And sorry boostedinthe843 My idle on my car is all screwed up to & Ive just ran across tons of threads about this issue so that's the only reason why i said search.

Vfaq has a good write ups on idle problems.

yeah keep me posted on that. and the proper way to adjust a biss screw is to ground out your ecu, and adjust when the car is running. unground then the ecu adjusts for the adjustments you have made

I put on the EGR blockoff plate, And It didn't make any changes to how my car idles....

Do a boost leak test and use a lot of soapy water to see if you have any leaks. Spray the soapy water into the biss screw also because the o-ring behind it is probably worn out, which is why it won't change your idle when you turn it. Also, adjust it as I said in my previous post. (car off car on)

 

[Bud92gsx]

NO. No my car is fine,,I put the Plate on the EGR for Boosted. This isn't my problem..I was doing it to help...

If setting the BISS correctly as well the mechanical stop plate doesnt work.. and timing etc is good.. you've got an air leak behind the TB.

 

[Bud92gsx]

An air leak...You hear that boosted. Check behind your TB today, you don't have to work..
