high idle after bypassing smog

[tstang21]

as you all know, i bypass my smog pump. when the car is on a cold start, the idle sits normal for a few seconds, CEL blinks on and then it jumps up to around 1500 rpms for about 5 secs and drops back to normal. the CEL disappears. i heard it was timing that needs to be set for it to know its operating under a shorter belt could it be the IAC that needs to be cleaned or replaced ?


thanks

Pull the code. It should not be an issue related to your smog pump bypass.

Good luck.

air pump pumps air into the back of the e7 heads and down into the mid pipe, did you cap both off?

i didnt remove the smog pump whatsoever until i get a delete kit. for now im just bypassing it. i didnt pull any codes as yet. the car runs good but when its on a cold start, this happens for a few seconds. i tried adjusting my idle screw. somehow im believing it could be the IAC. but ill replace it once i get my TB installed. could it be timing related ?

Fix this issue before you start making adjustments or replacing parts. Otherwise your variables go higher.

If it only does it for a few seconds and otherwise it idles fine, then get that code pulled. It's probably not a hard adjustment (like your idle screw) if it only does acts funny upon rare occasion. Getting codes only takes a few mins.

Good luck.

Idling high for a few seconds doesn't sound like an issue to me. I would just drive it like that and except it.

FIXED IT ! i replace the coil w/ a new 1 and did some adjustments. i dont know if its thatbut i dont know. actually i felt a little difference by bypassing the pump.
