Need help with GSR idling issue, keeps dropping revs like its not sparking properly

25 January 2012 - 11:47 PM

Hi everyone,

my GSR seems to be having an idling issue, it only started a day ago, but it's frustrating the hell out of me

Symptoms:

It sounds like a miss-fire, it hovers around 700rpm, then drops intermittently, it sometimes feels like it's going to stall, like its struggling to hold revs/ or a slight misfire in the timing sequence


What i've looked for so far:

- So i've done a service, changed all the spark plugs and gotten new leads

- I've checked for air leaks in all the vacuum lines from the Throttle body and everywhere else

- Cleaned out the throttle body

- And looked for any loose plugs that could be causing me a poor idle

I can keep a decent idle with the air-con running, however, as soon as i turn it off or let go of the pedal its starts to loose idle again, it isn't stalling though and power is fine through the revs as i'm putting my foot down, however, you can still hear the stumble

I'm yet to try the idle speed motor yet or unplugging it, so i'll be doing that soon

But i wanted to ask if anyone had any other thoughts on what it could be?

Thanks Meta

HELP: GSR is overheating!

30 November 2011 - 07:59 AM

Hi everyone,

My GSR is suffering from some pretty heavy over-heating problems at the moment and i'm unsure as why?

So there's are the symptons:

-Drinking lots of coolant
- Hearing a seething like sound, like a cook off of fluid
- Over-heating quite rapidly

It's not however, blowing smoke, or loosing power, just hitting the high temp gauge

At the moment, i think it could be either the thermostat or clogged radiator, but i'm unsure and was hoping someone could confirm this for me?

I've tried turning on the heater and no hot air comes out? i've also done a recent radiator flush and it was working fine for a few days and now it's over-heating again, the thermo fan does work

Anyway, if you have any suggestions that would be great as i'm struggling with what it is!

Thanks

Need help with replacing clutch slave cyclinder for gsr

15 October 2011 - 01:13 AM

Hi all,

Need to replace my clutch slave cyclinder in my gsr and was wondering if i have to get a gsr specific one? or can i use one from either an evo or standard cc lancer?

Also, is it hard to do? and if not, has anyone got a guide or will be able to post a quick break down of what i'd need to do?

Thanks
