For those with Apexi SAFC

Heya Guys,

Me and my mechanic have been mucking around a bit with timing and throttle control coz in the morning i have to put my foot down on the accelerator for about 5 secs until it comes back to the correct idling. The revs first thing in the morning are really low so much so that it just about conks out on a start in the cold morning. We put my timing up and now the idling is revving at 750.

Any of you guys able to tell me what your idling is revving at?:confused:

Mine does the same thing in the monring.. just give it a few revs, and it holds idle ok.. let her warm up for a few mins and its all good

It idles at around 700-750 from memory.

mines around 800rpm which i think is a little high...

exactly the same as me

When dead cold mine idles around 1200 then settles to 750 once warm. 25GTT did the idle play up once you had the SAFC fitted/tuned? Coz the SAFC shouldn't effect idle unless you've mucked around with the (DEC-AIR) which I think is only used if your BOV is venting to atmo.

when mines cold it idles around 1200 as well. then it will drop to around 1000. after driving it will goto 750 and stay there.

On cold start mine will idle at more than 1000rpm, perhaps like 1200rpm if I remember.

Once the engine is warmed up, it idles at around 650rpm to 700rpm.

mine too - 1100 'ish when cold and then settles to around 658rpm (or thereabouts )

under my bonnet there is a factory sticker that says it should be tuned to idle at 600 rpm +/- 50 rpm

u must have the dec-air function setup wrong coz i messed around it that function on mine and it seemed to be working fine but the next moring the car idled all farked up and i had to turn the dec-air function off to get it back to normal!

isnt this because of the auto choke?

my mates 32 does the same thing, appaertly it is normal, apperantley it is like an auto choke..my 33 or 32 did no such thing however...strange.
