Ok so today i tried to reset my idel, to get the timing correct.

I tried to do what the manual said to do and the guides on here.

Ok warm the car up. Turn off, disconnect the TP sensor, turn the car on, idel is at 1200 rpm, so turn the AAC valve, all the way in, and the car only came down to 900 rpm. Reconnect the TP car rpm drops down to 650. HUMMMM

OK so what is going on, is it suppose to be, i can't sent the timing as it has to be done at 650 rpm with the TP off, but i can't get it that low. Will cleaning the AAC fix this, i have no idling issues, but i am a bit warried taht something is wrong.

HELLPPPP

somone point me in the right direction.

i want to do my idle properly, and same for the timing, and timing seting is rpm dependant.

SO i can't do it properly.

From reading other post, once the TP is off the rpm should drop, but mine rise to 900 rpm and i can't get them down anyfurther.

Ok so here it is then

I turn the car on this morning and still acts thesame, cold start work fine.

Why can i not get my AAC idel screw to bring the idel lower then 900 rpm. Also fideled with the computer screw, and nothing, doesn't make it go up or down, with or withouth the TP set on.

HELP, i think i am going to go insane with this car, everytime i think i have it sussed out and all good, something hapens or i find soemthing new that might not be thesame.

booohoooooooo.

read the thread on setting your idle correctly.

there is also a screw on the ecu yo uneed to adjust usually.

You could also have a vacuum leak, vac leak caused my car to idle at around 1,200 or so

my car idles at 650 rpm, but when i disconnect the TP it sits at about 900rpm, the computer screw does nothing. The thing i am trying to do is tha the base timing is suppose to be set with the TP off at 650 rpm, and i can't get that to happen.

SO i need some help.

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
