    Rough Idle

    Rough Idle

    My car is idling roughly, usually when I'm on a stoplight. This only happens when the engine is already warmed up. Doesn't seem to happen during cold starts or when the engine is below 180F coolant temp. Check engine light is not on and there are no trouble codes. My car battery was fully...

    What did you do to your ride today

    It is on my list of stuff to get for the car. Thanks for the feedback.

    What did you do to your ride today

    Did you install all motor mounts at the same time? Or did you get to install the CS TMM insert after the other mounts have already been installed? I previously had the DM RMM and it did everything you have described. Easier shifting, increased throttle response, less engine movement and more...

    Does the CS TMM insert really make a noticeable difference?

    Fuel Trims p0171 New intake

    In my experience, fuel trims with Stratified Flash tunes have always been high. By high I mean it goes up to 7-8 on my car. Obviously, that is not high enough to cause a problem like you have though. I know this is not a solution for your issue, but have you considered just getting a flash tune...

    What did you do to your ride today

    Finally got my Optima Yellowtop battery charged over the weekend. I also turned off the trunk light to stop it from draining my battery.

    Drive cycles for emissions

    When you say tweak, you mean tweak your tune to make it pass?

    Valve Cleaning, How To Do It and Why?

    What if you already have the JBR TIG? Do you still have to replace after each cleaning or can you re-use it?

    What did you do to your ride today

    Over the weekend, got my ETS TMIC fixed and reinstalled on the car. Also installed JBR boost tubes which have been sitting in the garage for over a year. Back on my Dizzy Tune map and the car drives great. I don't remember the tune being this smooth and fun to drive. As Jason from Dizzy Tuning...

    Do you use Battery Chargers?

    It would dip below 10v in the morning the if battery voltage is like 11.6v before I start up the car. If the voltage is higher than 11.6, it usually stays above 10v when I start the car. The past few days it's been going up. It went up to as high as 12.1 with just daily driving (I drive it 5...

    Do you use Battery Chargers?

    Yeah I used to think that batteries will get fully charged up when driving daily and that battery chargers weren't needed. Now I know that they have their place. I also learned that Optima YellowTop batteries get discharged more than regular batteries because they are a deep cycle battery. Good...

    Do you use Battery Chargers?

    I didn't know they could top it off that quick. I'll look into that then, thanks.

    Do you use Battery Chargers?

    Been doing some reading online about how to check for parasitic battery drain. Looks like all the guides say to start with a fully charged battery. I was tracking my battery voltage yesterday, it went from 11.6 in the morning to 11.9 for my commute home. This morning it was back to 11.6. So for...
