    Strange RPM jump in Tunerstudio

    After much digging, I think I have this sorted out. The initial problems of the car becoming undriveable after time were I think the failing TFI and or PIP. After replacing those, the problem was better, but the "miss" was still there. While messing around in tunerstudio trying to figure...

    Strange RPM jump in Tunerstudio

    Hey guys, hoping someone has seen this before. First a quick run down on the car. The car seemed to be running well, before we pulled the motor. Fresh 347 (100 miles), Summit B303+ cam, Systemax II intake, Accufab 65 TB, 36 lb injectors, Promaxx 180 heads. I bought the full Megasquirt kit from...

    Electrical Did I wire this mini starter correctly? With pics!

    Took the car apart 6 months ago, and now putting it back together with a few upgrades. Wasn't sure if this was the correct way to wire the new mini starter. I tried to give it a "bump", but jost got a single "click". Battery shows a full charge. Here is the wiring at the starter, you can see...

    Gauge panel plastic polish

    I just did mine, it was original out of my 89, I used some cleaning compound that came in a headlight restore kit, just with a microfiber towel, came out looking like new.

    Alright, one more update. The car started doing the 2k idle thing again. Decided to look deeper into the test codes. Turns out, all the codes are on the same wiring. Figured it might ne a bad ground in the harness, so I added an additional ground to the TPS. That fixed it immediately, and all...

    Well, after pulling my hair out for the last couple days with the multi meter, test light, etc. I decided on a whim to just slap the old tps on and see what happened. Low and behold, car idles great all the time. Thanks to all who chimed in! Now let the interior resto and engine mods begin :)

    Yeah, it still is weird with the clear connector disconnected, and a fuse in it. But, the car idles fine if I disconnect the NGS down at the transmission (other than it wants to die when you come to a stop with the clutch pedal in). Possible the switch at the clutch pedal is bad?

    Thanks for the quick reply! With the trans in neutral I'm getting 0 volts, with it in gear it read 4.89 volts. Putting a fuse in the clear connector did not change the idle characteristics at all, still idles at 2k with the clutch out. So the problem likely in the wiring of that clear...

    Back on topic. Replaced the NGS (neutral gear switch) today, she still idles at 2k, but will drop back to 900 when the clutch is depressed. Any ideas?

    Whelp, as far as a progress update, got the car back from paint. Guy did a :poo: a55 job, wouldn't fix it, then literally closed up shop and disappeared. Going to have to live with it, can't swing any more money for paint. Got the 5 lug and rear discs done, new springs/shocks and whatnot...

    We'll, ordered a switch from lmr, but won't be able to install for a while, car is going in for paint on Monday. I'll update this when I get it figured out so someone 10 years down the road can benefit.

    It was around there, I set the base timing to 10, it was only around 4. Car idles great now with the NGS switch unplugged. Definitely want to figure out why though, going to want the car running right when we get the AC and everything back on.

    That would make sense, the car idles great with the switch unplugged. No to find one, didn't see one on Rock auto. Edit, looks like LMR has them. Thanks

    Will do the timing here shortly, thanks for the suggestion. I can't put an AC load on it, since its gone, but can do headlights I guess. The car is kind of stripped right now, going in for paint on Monday. Trying to get this sorted out before I pull the motor and put it back in with some mild mods.

Smog pump has been removed Car idles at 800-900 RPM as long as the clutch is depressed all the way. Soon...

    I'll pay up to $100 for a console only if its broken, and more if its in working order. August is too late, anything past 7371 dash won't work. You can check your dash version in console settings, it will look like the pic I posted.
