Bassnectar Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hi my ej25 seems to idle right at 400, if i read the top of the needle maybe 450 either way it seems a little bit low. Do any of you have any tips or ideas on where to start my diagnosis, it sucks not having money to take it into the shop the engine feels great otherwise, clutch seems off as it released near the middle of the pedal, but car runs great Just worried the low idle will encourage future problemsnot sure what you guys would try first as i have no experience with this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stang70Fastback Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Yeah, that's definitely low. When mine drops to 500 or lower the car shudders. You might check the Idle Air Control Valve and see if that's functioning properly. It's fairly easy to get to, and a good place to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassnectar Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 when i rev up the car to 800ish the car shakes a bit more then when its idling low i guess the car has gotten used to it, but i will start with that valve And if anyone has a weapon R intake can you tell me what size of air filter i can use instead of the Dragon one because its crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassnectar Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 my car pulled a check engine light after changing my fuel filter so we resecured the lines to be sure but it isnt that, i just switched to regular from premium and i think my car is pissed. Im buying a code scanner tomorrow hope it isnt anything to bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassnectar Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 took my car in because i got misfire on 3 ,4 randomly. but good news is on his computer it shows my idle at 680 - 700 which is much better than 400 lol. did some other work and hopefully i wont get any more codes!

Matty2Hotty Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 If your NA then our subi is made/tuned to run on Regular only... No need for Premo unless your turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
