#94704, "follow up question to "WTF did this guy do to my car""
Nov-22-05 06:27 AM by tim97rs

          

secondary rail and injectors are back in and NOT coming out again. the METAL bracket i fab'ed up broke at the securing bolt on the upper plenum. thats thats the second bracket that broke at that same point, although the first one was aluminum.

Anyway, rail is secure, comp is 200-200-190-195, new plugs put in and the car is running fine... almost. i have a weird idle problem. while sitting there it idles fine but when i drive and come to a stop and put in my clutch, my rpms drop and i stall out almost all the time. otherwise, it runs fine and boosts fine. any ideas...? TPS? IAC motor?

if there was no filter in the ML, I am sure thats why it was stalling...

Any new news yet?
