WTF is a BAC?

Haven't touched the TPS, Didn't know there was an issue with it.



Thanks guys for helping.


Bypass Air Control or some crap like that. Let's see...

Page 4A--62 and 4A--63 should tell you how to test the BAC and where it is on your car. Personally I would keep it. Isn't hurtin' anything and keeps your car from idleing like ****. Mine is bad and I hate not having it... Waiting on a used one to come in actually...





TPS is very easy to check. If, you have a multimeter or DVOM or somehin' like that. Ooooo... Actually I don't remember if checking it is the same on S4's as on S5's. I know how to check it on S5's at least.



Someone else is going to have to pick it up from here I think. I didn't work on my S4 very much at all...

my mother has the same problem when she drives my car... its cause she forgets to push in the clutch when stopping. No wonder my clutch is **** and slipping like hell.



The first thing that popped into my head was the bac, but if it happens all the time, then thats prob not alternator-load related unless u have a system in your car and are always playing it, or forgot to shut the AC off or something.



Id try just adjusting the idle screw right on top of the intake manifold. Its covered in a little black rubber cap. When the car is warmed up and idling, loosen that screw a little bit (1-2 turns or so)and see if the engine changes pitch or seems to idle a bit stronger.

I'll check the BAC sometime this weekend, if I can break free from the wifes plans. Anyhow I stopped by a local salvage yard today and sitting in the corner was a near perfect 87gxl. They wont sell me the entire car, but told me to make a list of what I wanted from it and he'd make me a deal. I figure I'm gonna take everything but the chassis. What I am wondering is, the five lug conversion is basically remove and replace right? And what is involved in switching to power windows from manual, is the wiring already there? Just plug in a fuse and call it done?



I'll be selling everything I'm not gonna use from this car for whatever I have into it. not looking to make $ just sharing the wealth.

When ever you do sell your stuff, I would love those manual windows and door panels.

They're yours. I spoke with the guy yesterday and he told me. $800 he'll deliver the whole car, and after I'm done he come and pick up whats left. So needless to say he'll only be gettin the unibody back. Anyone in south florida wanna help strip it?
