Hello

I am having idle issues with my rb25, the car runs fine revs fine and i put a new stock pump in it about 10000ks ago. I have to keep stabing the accelerator to keep it running, then it will drop to idle for 1 second then just fade off and die. However say i take the car for a spin for a while, turn the car off and come back when its still warm it will idle for approx 20 seconds. Then it fades off and dies again. But the issue i dont get is i can here the pump turn off after that 20 seconds is up ??????? wtf

any help would be good

cheers

The car will idle for approx 1 second and then just fade off and die. No jumping up and down just slowly dies. The car runs alright apart from the idle except when i put it flat to the floor at about 4500 i get a bad miss, if i dont put it flat to the floor just keep the throttle at about 75% its fine. But i think the missfire is a different issue. I replaced the fuel filter about 3,000 ks ago. However the idle problem started before i replaced the filter.

    • More than happy with the colour match Talking to the painter he recommended to give the top a few weeks for the paint to 100% cure prior to sealing it with the ceramic stuff Also, because why not..... I have a fancy pants Fluidampr harmonic balancer on order, the 2.5 engine uses the OEM 2.0 balancer off the old motor as the 2.5 balancer is a larger unit and doesn't fit clearance wise, which, because the two engines have different harmonics, isn't optimal, the OEM balancer does the job, but as the gear driven balancer in the bottom end is removed to fit a RWD application there is slightly more vibration, the Fluidampr helps with the harmonics that the gear driven balancer once took care of,  basically makes life easier on the oil pump and bearings when thrashing it around Hopefully the weather gets better soon because I'm keen for some cruising around, and currently, with the winds and storms we are getting, the amount of detritus being blown around from trees on the road isn't something I want to be driving around in
    • Meanwhile you could come down for a coffee tomorrow. Details in the events section
    • sorry dude i forget about the forum sometimes. sent you a pm
    • Hell yeah. It's not as if the path from front to rear is particularly squirrelly or otherwise difficult.
    • Hard line it, you will be thankful later on, if you car had hicas, use that as your return.
