Won't idle
 
I just installed a patriot 226 in my car and it will idle pretty well when cold but once it starts to warm up it starts to die then finally dies...it just cant hold the idle when warm..... Normal?

You can turn the throttle stop screw a turn or so and that should help with the idle.
Is it tuned?

GT Griller Nov 26, 2006 03:41 PM

No not tuned just put it in friday night but yea i turned the screw a bit to keep it alive for right now.

thats normal with out a tune, cold start up it runs off a rich program but once it is warm it will use the sensors input and all that good stuff. when mine is warm i hold my foot on the gas for a second so it can find an idle then im good
