Well Black Magic was having problems starting and staying running the other day. So I dropped her off at Sunset Ford. They called to see what the problem was since she started for them over and over. I explained that it would not start unless I floored it to pluse the injectors. Other times it would not stay running unless I keep giving her gas while stopped. So the tech said that it should be the Idle Air Controler and it was covered under my 100k warranty. I said let's do it. So yesterday I picked her up. W
W! Black Magic is running so strong now. When I left the parking lot I was making a left in to traffic and she decided to break loose and fish tail. Yes, I know, no big deal. However, I was not really flooring it or anything just gettin' on it to get into traffic speed. She has alway's been strong, but now it is a good amount of difference. Also running much smoother! I have noticed that it is much more apt to spinning the tires now than ever before. I was playing arround in the empty parking lot this morning here at work and can burn them at a 20mph rolling start! Never done that before.
I fugure that the IAC would be controling RPM, Air/Fuel...? Anything else?
So has the new IAC really made that much of a difference or is this new power all in my head?
