99 Eclipse RS 104k

Idle speed sway slightly between 700 and 800 rpm after warming up.

Plugs and wires are new.
I cleaned the throttle body.
I also checked the resistance of coil pack and it's okay.
So, it does not look like misfire.

What could be the cause?

Thanks

seems pretty normal to me unless you have not explained it well enuff

yeah whats the problem?
a 100rpm sweep is not unstable.

maybe he means that it jumps 700-800 rpms?

Anyone know anyone who can help me tune this in the Pittsburgh area (Greensburg)?

I mean the idle sways between 700 and 800 rpm.
I don't know if it is normal because the idle speed of my another car (97 saturn) is very stable, the needle does not move at all.

I can feel shaking when the idle drops to 700.

that's perfectly normal for our cars.. 700-900 rpm is typical idle speed and it can easily vary 100-150 rpms. When the break is pressed at a stop it should go up to 1000-1100 for a while as well (for power breaks, etc, i believe).

thanks.

That is not normal. There could be a number of possibilites, maybe your Idle Control Sensor/motor is going out.

Edit- maybe a slight sweep inbetween 700 and 800 RPM's is fine, but if it surge's between them alot, it's not normal. You even said the car felt like it starts to stumble when it goes down around 700 RPM.

all he can really do is replace all the vacuum lines, gaskets,clean out the intake/iac motor,etc..
no car with 100K miles drives like it did when it came out of the factory anyways

yes the idle sway between 700 and 800 at an interval of a few seconds. I can feel shaking when the idle goes down to 700. Is this a symptom of bad IAC?

I cleaned the throttle body, IAC,
changed TB gasket,
replaced PCV, PCV tube,
the tube between intake duck and camcover,

So, what next?

vacuum hoses,egr parts, manifold gaskets,

I had a exhaust installed on my non-turbo and after that the idle started to change. MT- and in idle it will surge from sometimes 400-1200. I know its way off but not sure how to fix it. from everyone i talked to, i went ahead and installed a SAFC II and had the car dyno'd helped alittle but still off. Plus after the SAFC was installed the MAP sensor light came on.. Replaced and light still wont go out. Any ideas?

02:21:45pm DarkOne> Are we still talking about fucking dead chicks?

thanks, i checked it and it is definitely drawing power from the MAP so the sensor isnt getting enough power... Someone suggested using a diode to get the power back... What do you guys think...Or have you heard of any other fixes... Normally i wouldnt care, but have to get the car inspected before i go overseas and they wont pass it with the check engine light on...

its how you installed the safc and the setting you have it on.
you have it for pressure sensor and 7in/7out right.

ill check the 7in/7out tonight when i get off work... Im going to spend the weekend adjusting it anyways... I need to change the power band to lower rpm's, right now its huge about 4k, but in the city i never get much chance to use it.

did you have any benefit from the larger TB, ive been weighting the costs, so wanted to hear from someone that has one. Also about the high idle surge, my roomate bored his tb and it idled extremely high like that, then he got a new butterfly and it went away.

theres definatly a diferance with the bigger throttle body i can only speak for 55mm it works great, heard this was the best for our cars no higher dont know but as for the 55 theres a difference in throttle response and pick up. dont spend anymore the $50.00 on this project though. i believe concept illusions is still doing this they did mine.

One thing you might try is putting in Shell V-Spec gasoline, i've noticed that my car doesnt seem to like certain gas companys, such as arco, it idles really rough when i use cheap gas, and to clean it up, i used V-spec, and it worked fine after it got the cheap stuff out of its system. That could just be my car though, all 140,xxx miles on it. My sisters got a 95 AT and it idles between 200-300. feels shitty, but its never died on her.

checked the settings and it is set for 7 in/out... Then started adjusting the lo throttle and this solved alot of the problem... However i couldnt get a A/F gauge this weekend to tune it exactly, so im buying one today to get all the kinks out.

I here ya on the gas, when i first got the car i used exxon and my car would stall out for no reason, so know i pretty much use shell or amoco..
