Did you have this problem before installing your pulleys?

How long has it been since you installed them? Did this happen immediatly after installation on some time after? The ecu needs time to adjust to the new pulleys.

its been about 6 months since i put thos pulleys in.... its the problem i have been reading alot about from other members... the RPMs srop and shoot up back to norm. some say it might be that i have a bad spark plug....what kinda plugs should i get?


bit the be the

 

mine idles low too.....it scares me cuz i think that my car is gonna shut off. i engage the clutch and rev it up a bit, and it seems to help. but is there a solution? my car has never stalled...and i just noticed this after i came back from teh dealer after my 10k check.....

Mine does that because of the strain on my engine from ym H/O Alternator...does it Idle a little low..but not bad..and drop drastically when you depress the clutch?

 

for me, when the clutch is engaged, the rpms go to around 0 or something.....but when i sit at a light or in traffic, it idles at like 500.....really low, when it usually idles at like 750-800. i guess i have to pay more attention to what rpm it is at when the clutch is in.......

whats an H/O alternator?

Ok, but did it start idling funny immediately after the pulley install 6 months ago, or way after that? If it was right after, then it's likely the problem is caused by your pulleys.

its been happening since about my 10k, but after i got my pulleys is the first time it has turned off while i was in the middle of a 4-way stop... i also have a big amp with the stock batt... does anyone know if using v-tech alot is bad? i got almost 21k...

im just gonna control myself and not flame you becuase once upon a time we were all clueless....

ITS VTEC! v-tech phonnes do suck and i would not recommend using them alot. VTEC is just a cam lobe that allows more air into the engine at higher RPM's, nuttin bad about it!
