  • Idling

    Having trouble with the car not idling right. The car will not stay on. The only way it can stay on is if I give it gas. Either than that the car tries to idle but then it shuts off. Already tried to mess with the idle speed with hptuners but no luck any one have an idea on what it can be.

        Vac line, maf or no maf sceen in, IAC needs cleaning , spark plug wire shorting out or bad O2 sensor. Any codes coming up or pending codes when you read them?

          Bad alternator? Low battery? Coil pack? Need more details.

            Did a whole swap from a 3.4 to a 3.8 along with a garret turbo. I took off the pre and post O2 sensors from the cat. I don't even have a IAT connected in the car. I'll take pictures of how the engine looks right now.

                My car did the exact same thing; then I realized my IAT was disconnected...

                  I had problems like that with my stock Camaro. I had to take it back and forth many times to the dealer. Not fun. I eventually had the injectors and coil packs replaced. That fixed it. I then had similar issues again (more like what your having) and had the fuel pump and filter replaced. That fixed my issue. Car has 103,000 miles now and I had the spark plugs and wires replaced yesterday.
