Changed distributor cap due to it was cracked at the top, changed rotor due to it was time to change it.<\/p>\n<p>Then checked the ECU codes, Z31 was telling me that the Idle air control vavle is bad. \u00a0So I decided to down grade to the SEv6 Maf and ECU. \u00a0With this the idle is better but not much. Checked the codes witht he sev6 ecu and turns out the Fuel Temp Sensor in the FPR is bad and Cylinder Head Temp Sensor is also bad&#8230;.<br \/>\nSo went a head and done a timing belt change, CHT Sensor changed, replaced the FPR, and timing belt pully.To see if that helps in anyway but it did not change anything. Did a full tune up plugs wires, \u00a0and did not change a thing.<\/p>\n<p>So after all of that it\u00a0accrued\u00a0to me that the issue has to be the distributor.<\/p>\n<p>Because:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The rotor cap was broke in a spot where the rotor was hitting<\/li>\n<li>When I removed the cap, I can lift up and down on the rotor.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>So I pulled the distributor to check, I wasn&#8217;t to sure if the distributor is supposed to have this much play if at most any play at all. So I called a buddy on that and sure enough that is the problem. I went to the junk yard and picked up a matching distributor from a z31 and when I installed it, the car \u00a0now idles perfectly.<\/p>\n<p>I have made a few videos with my phone to help figure this problem out.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Idle issues .\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FXxPCt1STbc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Idle issues\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/76I7wJfc9CU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Idle update - 5\/12\/2013\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9il9ouIL1vo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Here is a video after installing the new distributor.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"S12 Idle update\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/alqM4BfvGjw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My write up is about how I encountered a big issue with my silvia. \u00a0I was having so much issues one day when I turned on my car, the initial start was hard as it kept turning right back off. \u00a0Then when it started the idle would go near dead.
