Guest Posted November 12, 2002 Report Share Posted November 12, 2002 whenever i put my car in park it idles really high and some times the it will rev up then die down and keep doing that. I cant tell what rpm its at because my dash is messed up and the guages are inacurate.If anyone has any ideal what could be causing this. it would be a big help. thanks john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted November 13, 2002 Report Share Posted November 13, 2002 yeah i have the same problem with my car where i r's higher when i stop then drops down like its gonna die. i took mine in and the told me their computer came up with a lean exhaust gas code. has your car been sucking down gas lately. thats what mine started doing, i put in new plugs nothing there so it might be a exhaust gasket leak. as for your prob if its not sucking down gas look at the crankshaft sensor maybe.

Guest Anonymous Posted November 13, 2002 Report Share Posted November 13, 2002 Sounds like both of you need a new x-over pipe. Mine does the same thing. Are you guys running the stock air intake system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted November 13, 2002 Report Share Posted November 13, 2002 i went with the k&n air filter on the turbo. should it not be doing that with that filter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 13, 2002 Report Share Posted November 13, 2002 it sucks down the right amount for a turbo car id say. its not the filter because i have it off the car right now. As for the X-pipe if those go bad does it suddenly go bad or does it progress over time because this just suddenly started happening. And last night I was driving the car all of a sudden it jerked. now its like as soon as I make any boost the car doesnt want to take it or take off, and if I realy get into it itll jerk as soon as i come up on boost.I have no clue what it could be.

tgpguy21 Posted November 13, 2002 Report Share Posted November 13, 2002 yeah thats really wierd mine jerks but its because i have bad motor mounts. My car gets like 18 to the gallon so i know thats not right. there was another guy whos car jerked because of a line on his transmission so i dont know if that could be the same for you. he posted it in this forum so if you wanna check that out it could be that.
