idle at 1500-2000

[1995240sxSE]

Ok this is like the last thing I got left on my KA-T till all is perfect. My idle is running at 1500-2000 it just revs to 2k and falls to 1500 on its own I have no idea wtf it is I have been messing with it all morning and no dice. Please help. Dont flame cause I searched!

I adjusted the idle screw all the way out!

Do you have the IACV hose routed into the cold pipe near the TB?

[1995240sxSE]

yeah I put it there this morining, no clue what it could be????? ANY other reasons it would be that high?

Look at your throttle body. There is a little screw that oppens the throttle a little at idel. See if your screw is all the way up. That could increase your idle. Take it down a little if it is up. That might be it?

I adjusted it all the way out of the freakin hole, screw isnt even installed! I am baffled, I thought that was it but when I started car revving too high still

you have a SAFC? Try taking out more fuel at idle. It's ok to run alittle bit lean at idle.

i am at - 44% at idle through 2500 rpms, I think that it is a problem with how i have the iacv hose ran. I am gonna mess around with it.

[1995240sxSE]

all my vac and iacv lines are good, i messed around with the air decel. setings on the afc and I got the idle down alot. Also found my oil leaks!!! On the botom of the turbo at the drain line dripping alot and my upper timing cover. gotta wait till it cools down to fix!

Check your throttle cable and it's adjustment.

Make sure it isn't crushed or kinked, because i've had the same thing happen...

i am having the same problem with my CA18DET. if you get the idle fixed for sure please let me know. I will be installing a safc2 this week so hopefully i can fix it with that

iof it aint 1 thing than its another!!! I got the idle down and I was trying to fine tune the tuning and I think that I advanced it a bit too much cause it sounded like it was pingning alot. I h8 this car! It is gona as soon as I get to washington state! Any one want it??? I ordered a new turbo cause of my side play issues and the blown seals! It is a .60 ar instaed of .70 so I am hoping that I will have a faster spool.

FRUSTRATED AND MY KA-T!

with a little tuning with the safc2 i think i should be ok with my car. I worked with her today for a while and seem to get the idle down alot
