s13 idle problems
Ok heres the deal...When Im driving down the road and I press the clutch to brake and leave the car in gear, the idle will drop very low ...to were the car shakes a bit before reving back up to a normal idle. I've even had it go all the way down and the engine actually shut off while taking a corner. Now whenever I press the clutch and put it in neutral..it doesnt drop very low. I had this same problem when i first got the car and they had to replace the water pump, as I was driving away from the shop it would die whenever the clutch was down... I drove back and we played around with it and we found that when you wiggled the wires the go down the left side of the engine block the engine would rev back up. we followed it to a sensor n the intake manifold right behind the fan. We unplugged it and plugged it back in and it worked fine for a couple weeks. Now it is doing it again. Have any of you had this problem? If so please tell me whats wrong and how to fix it.

it seems to have fixed itself today...its totally puzzleing.In other news...I cut out a tree stump on the side of my house so i can park my new 240 in my back yard(where there are no trees above it) and i filled the hole back with dirt and used my old integra to pack down the dirt. I cant belive how bouncy and noisy that thing was ..and I only quit driving it 3 weeks ago!!! well at least its good for something..hey I might actually keep it around!!!
