Hanging idle

[SonicStangGT]

Ok i already did the IAC trick that I found in a search on stangnet and it worked untill the computer learned what I was doing. Now the computer is setting a high idle speed code and it seems that the IAC trick only works for a little bit. If I clear the code it seems to work fine, but after a little time goes by, it starts to idle high again and then the light comes back on. Also do I need a tune with the mods I have. I have never really had a tune but now my anderson pms took a dive, so I hope thats not my problem. Thanks for any help.

Also do I need a tune with the mods I have.

youve never had your car tuned after the work that has been done to it?

id get a dyno tune.

you definatly need a tune, especially with all the mods you have.

When did the issue start happening?

You've got P&P heads, a different intake mani and a 125 shot? +1 for tune.

PS - sorry to hear about your layoff, you'll bounce back soon I'm sure!

Thanks for the info. I guess once things pick up I'll have to buy me a new tuner and head to the dyno. My pms just stopped working and I've already shipped it back once since I bought it to be fixed. The sreen lights up, but never shows anything. It cost me $175 last time to get fixed, so I'am not to sure its worth fixing again and again, plus not many people use them.

You have nitrous without a tune??? Holy crap....

Been running this way since brand new. Never had any problems till about a year ago when I tried to install the comp 278's and had PTVC. So for the past year I have been through a bunch of crap with work and trying to put the motor back together. Finally got the motor back together and it has this idle. But I fixed the other day. I just had to reset the idle, and now I have no problems. I have had my car on a dyno but the guy who tuned it didnt due a very good job. He is new to the tuning world. Once I get my cams and a new tuner I am going to go get a tune. Where did you get your car tuned 98stangv8. I was thinking of going to Pro-dyno in Fort Mill, S.C. Ever heard of them.
