Re: Noooooo!!! The infamous Idle problem has hit me!

Ladyvenom, not sure what the idle valve controller has to do with starting. Mine has had no problems starting. You should give it a shot and see if it works. At least it might work better when you sell it. <p>When you unplug it, the computer takes over ( I think) and sets the idle at 1,000 rpms. You...

Re: Noooooo!!! The infamous Idle problem has hit me!

Um the air bypass valve is pretty much in the same place. You could look in the online shop manual they have scetches in there that might help. Who told you it wouldn't work? Out of curiosity.<p>How come you need a new clutch? Is it slipping or chattering?<p>-Cybin

Re: Car shakes @ ~90kph

I just though of something it could be. When your stopping does your brakes grab a little? If so check your disc rotors in the front. No kidding, if one is warpped it could be causing you to hear it at low speeds and then start to grab and shake at higher speeds. <p>Mx-3's do this alot, there is eve...

Re: protege motor swap?

Damn it looks like such a nice clean install. No tubes running everywhere and such. The protege motor is also much better looking then the sohc motors. Not to menchen the added 40hp. <p>I bet with proper mods you could get 150hp down to the wheels with a BP motor. That's more then the V6 1.8L and so...
