OK well i think i found the problem.. it seems the parts guy has sold us the wrong sensor it was some aftermarket one and the part number said it was for an opel :012: plus the box had been opened before we got it so i think this is causing the problems that we are having.
|
Got the right chts and the car runs without flooding now but it will not idle above 350 rpm runs good when gas pedal is lightly pressed checked timing all is good there just wont idle any ideas?
|
raise the idle... lol should be easy to do. isnt there a set screw on the throttle body to raise the idle by opening the butterfly valve every so minutely?
|
^^^^^What he said!
|
the idle can be adjusted but it is pre set from the factory and has never been touched thats why i didn't do it simply because it would just mask the real problem. could it be the aac or the air reg?
|
What's the timing set to?
Have you "adjusted" "changed" or "modified" anything else during this whole process of elimination? |
Timing is set to 23 deg and no nothing has been changed or adjusted just been sitting for 10 years after the head gasket was replaced . it runs good if i feather the peddle but it wont idle it will just stall out if i touch the afm a bit it will run a bit better but im pretty confident the afm has nothing to do with it. Could the aac valve be causing problems? also we noticed the aac valve can be adjusted?

Regardless did you ever set up the TPS? It would probably be a good idea to go through the EFEC section of the FSM and test and set everything up properly....

What's the RPM's at when you bump the throttle (pedal) up?
If it's not installed (aka using a block off plate instead), it will cause idle problems. The AAC is not adjustable. It's either closed or open. |
500-700 is a ok idle if it doesn't die or bog.
|
its must be lower then its hard to tell because it idles so erratic it just wants to stall its definitely running rich because sometimes it backfires through the AFM and kicks the flap closed i tried to take a vacuum reading but i couldn't keep it running so i had to feather the peddle which would not give me a proper reading its was only like 5 inHg. We also took the AFM apart and there was groves in the trace pad so we moved the board so it had a fresh surface. Just a thought we have had the injectors cleaned and installed new seals they dont feel as tight as thought they should be seals part numbers are correct.

it idles at like 400 rpm also for the airflow meter test it says i should be getting between 280 and 400 ohms im getting 200, is this a problem? And i thought the aac valve was adjustable because of the rubber plug on the side and under that is an allen bolt.

Andrew280, What was the final outcome, are you still working with the stock ECCS on your Turbo. I am new to the forum, and your symptoms match mine. I have a junkyard find that I am trying to get the idle running smoothly, maybe we can compare notes.
