Hello i have a 1996 Gtst s2
Its got an:
exhaust system
manual boost controller
bov
pod filter
pretty much stock
Ive got a few problems
Firstly, most of the time the idling sits around 700 rpm, but sometimes when warm its at 900 rpm, is that normal???
the actual problem is that when revving it lightly, (say for example reverseing out of a parking bay), or even just revving it once. The rpm drops
to about 500rpm or lower, and sometimes it even stalls. its a real pain because if u rev it gently whilst taking off and then take your foot off the accelerator, it seems like its gonna stall.
but it doesnt always. only sometimes.?
what is wrong and what can i do to fix this?
also the temperature gauge is broken as on cold it shows 1/4 reading and when its warm shows a 3/4 reading.
Also i think my car is running rich as the exhaust pops sometimes when putting ur foot down and changing gears, gaining speed quickly.
fuel also seems to go quickly.
I dont know what my boost is set to because i bought the car second hand. so i really need help. i cant afford a tune either just yet because i wanna see if i can fix these problems myself.
Thankyou
