just installed new turbo, lt1 maf and translator now have high idle

[85t-typebuick]

I just installed a new turbo, a lt1 mass airflow sensor and translator. Now I have a high idle. Its on a hot air motor. Any ideas?

 

[buickGN3:16]

make sure the translator settings are set correctly

 

[85t-typebuick]

How do I do that?

 

[buickGN3:16]

Do u have the original translator or the gen2 version?

 

[85t-typebuick]

The 6.25 version

 

[buickGN3:16]

Take the cover off & try setting both knobs to 0 & micro switches should be on on on off

 

[85t-typebuick]

Okay I will try that.

 

[buickGN3:16]

[85t-typebuick]

The settings in the Translator depend on what chip you have and what MAF you use.

It's in the instructions, and also on the back of the Translator cover. Since you have an LT1 3" maf, the maf base setting should be "3".

However, this probably won't affect a high idle. Look for vacuum leaks, TPS or IAC adjustment.

I put it to those settings and I think its slightly better but still high.

Yeah I just pulled the instructions out. And Im not running a chip. Its basicly stock besides the lt1 sensor and translator and cold air intake

Did you unplug the ECM, plug it back in and let it learn?

No?

Is that what your suppose to do when you install these translators?

 

[Homie_Telefrag]

No?

Unplug ECM and get it to re-learn. If no vac leak or iac issue then the ECM may be just having a little 'freak out' session. Mine did that and I had to unplug it/replug it in and I was golden. My .02 cents.... -Ben
