Hey guys, i'm new to the world of fast, and am having trouble with getting a friends car to idle well after a start.
The idle will tend to zoom up and down, and if you dont give it some gas, it will die. After giving it some steady throttle, it will smooth out, and you can pull ur foot off the gas no problem... after its smoothed out you can punch it out of gear, and it will return to idle fine.
a.f/VE tables have been worked out and are in good shape, i just need a few suggestions on what to do about the afterstart idle issue as this is the only time the problem rears its head.
So who has some suggestions on where to start? the IAC vs coolant temp chart places the iac very high compared to the desired line....
Another issue may be the IAC needs to be setup correctly? if so, does someone have a procedure for this?
the car is a 88 firebird formula, with an l98 shortblock, decent cam, auto, superrm setup...
thanks for the pointers ahead of time!
