I added fuel with the Haltech and got it to idle fine. Driving around is a little rough. There is no difference in the PVC for the Beta 1 and Beta 2 is there?
Ehh, check your old PVC and see if Viper had it drilled out or not. I think he did.

Yea, you got it running, but you didn't solve the problem. There's a reason why it stopped idling.
If you're running the Haltech and don't have the IAC working, then you're probably idling off the TB screw. In that case, you're gonna have a hard time idling when the weather changes. Your AFR's are gonna keep changing too.
Check to see exactly how you're controlling the idle. Either through the Haltech w/IAC, the stock ECU w/IAC, or the TB screw.

This car is driving me nuts! I am once again having problems leaning out after driving it for awhile. I am thinking it has to do with the alternator not putting out enough to power the injectors. Does that sound right? Also, NOW I am having a problem with it running RICH and dying at idle! Sometimes I wonder what the heck I got myself into and if I would be better off selling this and going back to a near stock tib.... 02.gif

I don't think adjusting the fuel is going to do anything for me. I think it has alot to do with the alternator. I have a new one , maybe I will get it installed tonight. As far as leaning out on idle, isn't there a coolant map as well as a fuel map? Maybe I need to start messing with that since it seems to lean out when the engine is hot.

My problem is fuel. I can got her to idle fine. But when I press the gas and let go she dies out =(. It is just a pain to try to adjust the fuel buy myself. BTW what you AFR at. mine is 13.5 at idea 750 rpm.
