OK the idle on my car is so low that unless I have the CC cable holding it up a little bit, it will die as soon as I let of the gas. And I was told to make a block off plate for the BACV, but that didn't help my idle at all, but it did cause my car to start like 2-3 times faster. Were as before I blocked it off it would crank for like 2-4 seconds, now it will crank like 1 second, and then fire right off. But I am still wondering what is causeing the low idle. I have looked for vaume leaks, and looked. But I can't find one anywere. So is there anything else that could be causeing my idle to be so low.







Thanks for any advice, Cory

NA or turbo? I should probably assume NA judging by your alias.

S4, NA.



I have RTVed until I can't RTV no more, The whole intake is sealed now. So I know it isn't a vacume leak unless it is some really stupid thing that is leaking.





And can some one get a picture or explain were the fast idle cam screw is.
