need some help car is acting funny

[turbotrix2004]

I'll check the plugs and pull orange wire when I get home from work tonight.
When I posted those readings I noticed that the car never went into closed loop, is that normal

caspers could have set the computer chip to idle in open loop only.

My chip is setup to idle in open loop until the engine coolant temp reaches 160 degrees then it switches to closed loop idle.

I'm still thinking MAF. Make sure the MAF reads to 255 at wide open throttle on Scanmaster. Of that is in fact the issue, MAF Translator and LT1 or LS1 MAF are your options. Remanned stock MAFs suck!

I don't have a scan master, just a scanner/code reader from autozone. Can anyone recommend somewhere to take her to in nj? This my only means of transportation right now, my truck is down also

Idle seems to be getting worse and sounds like it has a miss. The only changes I made on the car was 5 gallons of race fuel and a new iac. Is it possible the iac they gave me is wrong? Could the 5 gallons of fuel I put in make a difference? I tapped on the MAF with no changes in idle and when unplugged it died instantly. I also changed out all the spark plugs with AC 43 was 44 which looked a nice light brown color. I spoke with Steve Kaminski and although extremely helpful I know he is really busy and don't want to waste his time.

Ok I fixed the idle issue... I followed Steve's procedure on resetting iac and tps, but I still have that stumble on hard acceleration in low rpm's

Just letting you know I started having the same problem when I put in a chip and MAF pipe w/ K&N... I'm just dealing with it for the time being but I will post if i figure something out

 

[turbotrix2004]

It just a little weird, all was good then out of nowhere I get that stumble?

 

[turbotrix2004]

Well guys Steve was nice enough to squeeze me in, unfortunately and oddly enough I just broke down on my way there lol right in front of atco raceway. So now I'm waiting for Steve to come pick up me and my car. I'll keep you guys updated

 

[whitehot1]

Sorry for the bad luck today but don't feel bad it's happened to me a few times over the years.

I'm sure he will get your car running right so you can enjoy it.

Good luck and keep us posted on how things turn out.

Thanks I guess it could always be worse
