    Dies on cold start unless throttle is applied and bogs on initial acceleration

    I am at my wits end, I have replaced near every sensor I can think of on my motor (‘89 5.0) and yet everytime I have to start the car cold it revs up and dies. It will restart immediately and then struggle for a few seconds before dying. Once it finally finds its idle and goes into gear (AOD) it...

    Intermittent startup surging

    Few months ago I installed a mspnp2, along with GT40P heads and intake on my 95gt, idling has always been an issue but the startup creeps to around 3k and hangs there for 4-5 seconds before dropping down, this is only when the car has ran in the last couple hours, cold starts in the morning...

  5. Engine Surge on High Idle Only.

    When I start the car, it surges on high idle only. Normal idle and driving is fine. Its a 1986 with a carb set up. Any ideas why it might be surging? I checked for vacuum leaks but couldn't find any issues. I've adjusted my carb and timing where it runs the best. Bad idle circuit maybe?

    Idle problem 1990 with gt40 crate engine

    Started as a surging idle when the engine warmed up then after a year the idle rose to 2500-3000 rpm I replaced the IAC and now the idle is poor and the car stalls and check engine light is coming on. Thinking about tps next unless anyone can think of something else. I have never had any other...

  8. Idle Surging

    I have a 1990 GT convertible and the idle was surging after a few minutes of running so I did some research and replaced the IAC valve and when I started the car it ran great for about 10 minutes then it started to surge again so I replaced the TPS sensor as well and adjusted it to about .96 and...
