driveability with my 95

fiveOsnake · 11-14-2001, 02:46 PM

My cobra was running very slow with all the mods I have done. So I decide to check everything over and realize my timing is set at 3 degrees. I don't even know how the car ran. I instantly set the timing at 13 degrees and now the car is crazy. That power came at a price now my driveability is bad because when I am coming to a stop my car starts to hunt for a idle and most of the time it will shut off. The factory cam is still in the car with no chip. 95 cobra BBK longtubes,off road h-pipe,and flows. Cold air,75mm maf,70 mm t.b. underdrives,4.10s and BBK fuel reg 49psi@wot.

I guess it could be your headers or your mass air with the cold air kit, i've heard turning the mass air different directions can affect driveabilty 94-95 cars for some reason, try turning it in 90 degree increments and see if that helps. The header deal can only really be solved with a tuner or by moving your oxygen sensors up the headers onto the primaries. I've got an eec tuner on mine and it idles fine with longtube headers.

Why is your fuel pressure set so high? I'd back it down to 38 with the vacuum line off, then reset the computer.
