Hey all,

Hoping anyone can shed some light and wisdom on my current issue.

Background history is that i did clean

I've got an R33 RB25DE n/a AUTO (dont laugh, im on my P's) which is idling really badly.

It happens when the engine is warm.

The car idles between 200-1500RPM.

I also noticed that when I am at a set of traffic lights and the car is struggling I have to put it into neutral to prevent it from cutting out the RPM then bounces bewteen 200-1500RPM.

Whenever I brake to a halt the car will occasionally cut out while im driving.

Also, when I am driving at cruising speed (60-100km/h) and I release the throttle the RPM will drop really low (1000-1200RPM) causing the car to slow down as it is acting as an engine brake.

Finally, I noticed that when the idle is bouncing up and down the headlights a dimming !!!! so that really mixes things up..

anyway, I've uploaded a few videos to help better explain my description.

In neutral

In drive with brake applied

Rolling in drive without throttle applied

Thanks in advance lads!
