Message ok i have been browsing the forums forever and have found a few solutions but i thought i would go ahead and actually post something.
My Z sounds like a muscle / drag car... its awe full.. I was told it has a vacuum leak but i dunno yet.
It has no low end power, sometimes the idle goes up and down very fast between 800 - 1200. Its very loud and throaty. When coming to a stop and down shifting there is alot of back pressure and popping coming out of the exhaust. Sometimes if I dont downshift and just put it in neutral and coast the car will die. Ive done the coilpack test and everything is working fine on all cylinders. It just feels like im trying to pull an 18 wheeler or something. I can barely keep up with traffic and the car screams like im hauling when im going 20 mph... I mean.. it feels like it wants to take off.. but it doesnt. And 1st gear i have to rev it up to even move so it wont die. I have another IACV to put on it.. that should take care of the idle.. but what about the power and sound? Any suggestions? Also im getting a code 35 from the ECU :022:
