    Why Does Nobody Know??

    I still have no fix for my Idle Hang,

    - I have zero'd out the throttle cracker,
    - Raised the MPH for cracker
    - Did the Idle Config

    No change, Idle still hangs.


    I can't figure it out, its random and doesnt do it all the time.

    Running a data log, it shows the IAC is commanded to open, so I know its not a vac leak or a stuck TB......but why???

    Someone has to have the knowledge here....

    It could be a mechanical problem with the throttle body/wiring and not the tune.

    Idle hangs randomly @1500 rpms when rolling in neutral and when stopped and continues to hang for about 5 seconds afterwards. It doesn't happen all the time...But a log shows the IAC is commanded to be at about 180 and when it drops, the idle goes back to idle RPMs. So the issue is being commanded...but I don't see why it's random. I had the tune Posted, but "He" complained that I posted it. What I don't get, is he doesn't want to help, but complains when I ask others for help???

    Ok, it sounds like you are having troubles with a tune you paid for, and are using this forum as a leverage against him. There are plenty of people on here who can and will help you, but they don't want to get involved in a dispute.

    So you have to decide if you want help here, or you want to keep your tuner happy. If he's not helping you, then cut ties with him and put up your tune and log files and people will help you out. It's no different than calling your doctor and telling him you don't feel well, but refuse to give him any symptoms or details or let him test you.

    Not really...I didn't once mention any issues with the tuner nor his name. He brought up his own issues when I posted the tune. He cut his own string lol...I posted the tune in my original thread.
