Stalling when reaching boost or 0 vacuum - Page 3

LunchboxCritter · 05-24-2010, 04:55 PM

Mystery Solved: Idle problem was caused by the neutral safety switch not being hooked up to the right wires. Figured that out and corrected it, then adjusted the tps and idle set screw, now I've got a 800 rpm steady idle in neutral (with & without clutch pressed). Thanks everyone for all of your help/suggestions.

PS: I tinkered with the charcoal canister and decided it was best hooked up the way that I have it. I found it actually idles better hooked up than with it being unhooked. I don't know why, but I'll leave it alone. It's not creating a vacuum leak from what I can tell.

so the way you have it set up then is the correct way? I should be finishing up my swap this week or so. I really would like your help on this!

I do not know for sure if it's the correct way or not. My car is running great, boosting at 9 psi, idling at 800 rpm, and holds 18 psi of vaccum at idle. This vaccum diagram is how I currently have my vaccum and emissions stuff ran. Hard to tell from the diagram but I have the one way check valve on the charcoal canister so it can only pull the fumes into the intake hose, rather than blowing air into the charcoal canister. If I can be of any help just let me know.
