during cold start, and at idle I'm pretty sure, I'm gonna go start it now and see what happens

Re: mikey32235 everything is broken help me thread.

Do you have an AP? Get a log of your cold start instead of trying to guess what the problem is.

Re: mikey32235 everything is broken help me thread.
positive thing of having alot go wrong with your car is you get to learn how alot of stuff works, since at some point, you've had to take it apart.
ask me how I know...

Re: mikey32235 everything is broken - how to set a car on fire
Going to be pretty damn satisfying when it's running perfect.
Thing is, jokes aside...
We have all been there.
If you haven't, someone did it for you.

I had to step in on this one. If your car is running a lot better because of an oil change ( I don't care what oil you use) something more is wrong. Like you REALLY needed an oil change to begin with.
I will say, considering how much is going wrong with your car. Good thing is you can figure it out yourself ( mostly. Lol. )

Re: mikey32235 everything is broken - how to set a car on fire
lol oh believe me this is all done by my two hands. i think what will make my car sound a lot better is a motor mount kit. the constant rattling is making my car sound like a shit-vic (civic) lol. :(
That will be my next investment. probably from JBR, or Street unit..

Re: mikey32235 everything is broken help me thread.
so i may have found part of my stalling problem... reading up on the differences and forums of BPV and BOV... i see that for our cars the BOV makes it run like crap. so i know that i have the BITZ Bov... it is currently venting to atmosphere.. i closed it up and now it will be circulating in the system. i will find out tomorrow if this is the cause of the problem.
