86 GT Engine and Fuel Questions
 

I read in another post about a fuel pump whine. My 86 has a very prominent whine or hum coming from the rear of the car while it's parked.....is this normal?

Also, the idle is inconsistent. It will sometimes idle at 1000 rpm, and sometimes idle at approx 575-600 rpm. When it idles at the 600 rpm, it doesn't vary at all, when it idles in the 900-1000rpm area, it surges mildly. The throttle response seems to be better when it idles at 1000rpm, in the 600rpm range there is some hesitation.

When I come from a dead stop and stomp it, the throttle response is good, but at the next stop light, it idles about 1300rpm. Gas mileage has gone down 2-3mpg as well.

Please Help.

Thanks for the help.

is your car speed density? if so mine did the same thing. mine was worse when it was hot outside. i converted to mass air and i have had no problems with idle or running anymore. also the whine from the pump, mine does the same thing it,s a little louder than normal, but it still works fine.

The induction system is stock, so I assume it's speed density, correct?

How hard is the conversion to MAF? How much does is cost, and what's the affect on performance?

Thanks,

The hum you hear is normal
