Stupid Idle

[crxtscy]

My car is running really rough near idle. I have already tried the following:

-Clean the EACV
-Check timing
-Used known good dist.
-Reset ECU
-I had broken my TPS so i got a new TB w/ good TPS.

After driving at one day I got a CEL for the Map sensor. Could my Map sensor be bad?
I was also thinking...could my plug wires affect idle? I got crappy Autozone ones....i figured temporary.
My plugs look good too.

I'm going to advance my timing a bit and see if that helps, maybe also screw w/ the idle screw.

Check the map sensor theory first before you advance your timing or mess with the idle. If its bad then buy a new one or go to a junkyard and find one there.

what motor is it for? i have a map sensor for a y7 if ya need it

[crxtscy]

Its a A6/Z6 mini me. Does a replacement MAP have to be OBD0?

im not sure but my map is off a 97 y7 if you want it pay the few dollars to ship and it is yours

Ok, so I think the Map actually works. I figure this because if i disconnect the electric connecter the car dies immediately.

The car idles...rough...but it stays on after it gets warm. I guess I'll try to get someone w/ a known good EACV and Map sensor.

Check all vacuum lines are connected........theres one behind the IM
that i left unplugged once. The car ran as you describe.......

Also might want to verify the TB gasket is in good shape, as that could be another source of a vaccum leak. (Just found that out the hard way last month).
