im doing that tomorrow, im going by a friends that knows how to test for a boost leak and has all the tools to do it. hopefully we find it and fix it

 

I agree with that - I only suggested the idle adjustment as a stopgap measure to get him through until the trouble spot could be isolated. If it read as if I meant it as a permanent fix, I should've clarified that.

 

yea, once we fix my leak im going to put it back to the stock setting and hope it idles fine

 

good luck!

 

using this diagram... which lines are vac lines. so i know which ones to check if they need to be replaced... ill color the ones i replaced already in blue



i also replaced both the lines from the turbo to the n75

 

i have no idea what your problem is but let me tell you a story. i had a grand am gt. it kept breaking. if it didnt effect its daily driveablity IMMEDIATELY i just let the problem go. eventually, it got so bad i wanted a new car. i was fixing the thing constantly. i decided to get a good job and make enough money to get a decent vehicle. i ended up with the audi i am driving now. the other week, i had a cel. guess what i did about it? I fixed it. didnt let it go or anything. just plain got work done. and now what? it works like a champ. sorry to preach but thats exactly how you end up with a pos car. it breaks and you dont fix it. i wasnt fortunate enough to have a car like my audi a few years ago, but now that i am, i want to take care of it properly or i might end up like a pos like my grand am. fix it when its broke, and something thats broke wont cause another thing to break

 

Thats an inspiring story. Can you please shrink your sig pic by about 50%? Thanks!

 

^^^^i knew i wasnt goin to get told bout that sooner or later! believe, when i figure it out i will. been tryin...

 

download irfanview and shrink it...

and believe me. when theres a little problem wrong with my car i fix it... i dont mean to offend you, but i dont need you giving me advice on how i should solve a problem with my car... and yes it does affect daily drivability... when ever i come to a stop, my car stalls i have to put it in neutral and start it then if i hit the gas it chokes rpms drop to like 150 then fly back up and my car jerks alot. and now when im idle my vac is around 4Hg!

edit: and yes the idle is still messed up even after i changed the idle speed, so im going to change that back to normal when i meet up with my friend to test for a boost leak

 

ok, some one else told me it might be a clogged fuel filter... could that be a possibility?
