Ok guys what did I do to my car? Sometime ago I installed the CAI from the encylcopedia. Since then I have not disconnected my battery and all has been good. The other day I did disconnect the battery for puposes not related, and now my idle is all messed up to the point of the car dying on me. Did I reset the computer and it now doesnt like my intake or what? I've heard reseting the computer to adjust for the new intake was a good thing. UUUUHG.

When you reset the computer on a 3.1, you need to do what is called an "Idle Learn" to get the computer to set a minimum air rate.
However, I'm so used to doing this with a scan tool that I can't remember how to do it without one. I'd suggest doing a search on "3.1 Idle Learn".Dan<br />1990 RS 170,000 miles<br />3.4L collecting dust<br />700R4-to-T5 swap completed on Dec. 13, 2002Comment

I believe i read something on this today. What I got from it was that i need to just drive the car, shut it off, and drive again. Something like that. Basicly just drive it till the problem goes away. Heres hoping its that simple.

Without a scan tool it will take the car about three days to relearn itself, until then you'll just have to hold the pedal down a little when you come to a stop.91 Firebird 3.1<br />SC12 Supercharger<br />LSD w/ 3.73s<br />NOS 80hp wet shot<br />AKA: Phoenix<br />\"If Speed Kills...Consider Me Dead.\"Comment

I’m new. I actually don’t own a Camaro or firebird. I do have a 2000 Camaro 3.8 fly by throttle and 4l60e. This is installed in a 1980 Triumph TR7...2 weeks ago -
Not much going on, replaced my Kenwood double din stereo with a Pioneer double din, the Kenwood had problems. Then replaced my power inverter for my reverse...2 weeks ago
