Jesus F***ing Christ this is ridiculous...

Ok. First, you guys should know, I don't post. I don't ask dumb questions and 99.9999999% I find the answer to my problem buy Google searching the shit out of it. Mainly because I don't have the patience to wait days for a descent response. I need an answer NOW, lol.

Anyways, I've tried everything, searched everything, replaced everything, still having the same problem all be it better than it was.

My KA24DE is running rich. fouling plugs, rpms drop to about 500 when I let off the throttle then jumps up and down up and down until it finally levels out. Sometimes it stalls out. and there's a slight hesitation when accelerating.

COMPLETE emissions delete
new TPS dialed in w voltmeter to spec
new o2
new plus and wires
MAF passed inspection
car and engine grounded like a Mofo
Alternator passed inspection
New Battery
Timing is spot on

Engine is brand new just under 500 miles and it doesn't leak shit, doesn't overheat, doesn't smoke (maybe barely. it has too if its running rich. black soot on bumper but the smoke isn't visible from the car), compression is immaculate.

The car and engine runs great minus the mild richness. Any ideas???

Are you N/A?

The surging, dumb question but have you checked the IACV? Plugged in/unplugged/deleted? Check the circuitry?
Any codes on the ecu?
Knock sensor plugged in?
Intake manifold gasket leak?

Have you looked at your injectors to check out the o ring seals?

Kruked - yes its NA. And I posted up top "COMPLETE emissions delete" I only have two vacuum lines FPR and brake booster. ZERO ZERO ZERO emissions.

Falcon240 - yes Ive checked all the injectors even pulled the rail off and literally watched the injectors fire into the air. I was checking for leaks and found none. All the injectors fired great. no leaks no broken seals or rings.

jr ss - I checked the ecu got code 55 which means the computer isn't reading any bad signals which was weird because I knew for a fact the o2 sensor wasn't working correctly at the time. sending no signal to the ecu. But the ecu didn't see that, - weird.

the rpms jump up and down slightly. which to me is a dead give away for a bad TPS. Hooked up the voltmeter and at closed throttle its putting out 2.7 ohms and wide open between 12 and 13 ohms.

the other thing thats got me stumped is o2 sensor. when I do a bench test on the old one it worked jumping between 0 and 1 volts back and forth. but when I put it on the car and checked it. it read a constant 0.04 volts without change. I replaced it and the new one is giving me the same 0.04 volts. Am I testing it wrong???

I'm using a voltmeter. I hook the positive lead to the o2 wire then I ground off the black lead just like when I bench test. I should be getting the 0 to 1v back and forth shouldn't I?? I let the car warm up. I even hold the throttle to 2000 rpms for 2 minutes but the o2 still stays at a constant 0.04 volts.

The IACV has nothing to do with emissions and everything to do with Idle Control (hence it's name: Idle Air Control Valve). If you deleted that as well, you need to compensate for the lost air at some point when the throttle is closed.

As far as the o2 sensor goes I just don't think its getting hot enough for some reason. Which has got me thinking if I could somehow wire up a heated o2 sensor to work. I would just need to know where to wire up the two wires for the heat circuit.

RalliartRsX - THANK YOU. I will check this out. when I deleted everything I may have been led wrong. I was told to remove the IACV also and didn't question it. once I saw your post i looked it up and in theory it should fix my issues. I still have it. Ill put it back and see if it fixes me problem.

100% symptoms of a vacuum leak. Check for vacuum leaks then check again, under the intake manifold near the fuel filter as well. You will know when you find it if you put your finger near it and it starts to hiss. Good luck!

Have you not read any of the replies?

And not every vacuum leak is going to hiss IF you can get you finger near it.

Lol.

Can't believe that he thought that an IACV was part of emmissions. Makes me wonder if he even knew what the abbreviations were before you spelled it out for him.

Hey Kruked you ok?? yeah you mentioned the IACV Valve and yes I was LEAD TO BELIEVE it was part of the emissions. I didn't "google" all the abbreviations when I started this project. Its my first 240 and I don't know all the specifics yet.

But I know cars and engines. I rebuilt the engine balanced and blue printed. I installed the s15 front end PERFECT I MIGHT ADD. with no problems. electrical, interior, damn near everything. can you do that?

Why do you have to be an asshole?? do you need to get laid or something?? did your boyfriend leave you?? Do you need a dick your mouth?? f***king relax. we weren't all born with the 240/s13 encyclopedia automatically downloaded into our brains.

The reason why I gave RalliartRsx props was that he didn't ASSUME I knew what the IACV was and took 2 secs to give a brief description. But thank you to for initially bringing it up. I appreciate you looking out. If I knew it was idle control I probably wouldnt have removed it in the first place.

Take it easy brother, no need to get your panties in a wad. I like to pick on people from time to time. It makes shit interesting.

Everyone is an asshole in hiding. It takes certain things to bring the asshole out.
Electrical, interior, damn near everything, yep, I can do that. I once had a build thread on a local forum here in the Bay area, (yes, I'm from the Bay area. Clearwater to be exact) but it got deleted when I got banned for something that was really stupid. If the thread was still around, I would point you to it, but...
I've been laid once in the past 2 months, so yes, I need to get laid more often.
My boyfriend left me a long time ago.
I like penis in my hand, not my mouth.
I wasn't born w/ a 240 encyclopedia either. Although it would've been nice.
I wasn't exactly being serious when I said that I should've been thanked first, I was just poking.

Now, on a serious note:
when I initially mentioned "IACV" you should've asked, (or googled) what it was before assuming that it was part of the emmissions. No harm, no foul though. You now know what it is and whatnot.

OK. Here's the update.

I replaced coil pack
coolant temp sensor
TPS sensor
new distributor
new wires
new o2 sensor
I tested the vacuum which is at -52 (insane vacuum, lol) def no leaks there
replaced plugs AGAIN. fouled the other ones.
MAF is sending correct 1v to the ecu (checked at ecu)
ecu giving code 55 (no problems)
fuel pressure is at 34psi idle / rises when throttle given
all injectors are firing (seen it with me own eyes)

engine idles relatively smooth minus the up and down like the tps is bad. what i mean is that its not miss-firing or rough

STILL running rich and it seems to be getting worse for some reason. It bogs on accelleration. I have to sloooowwwwlly give it throttle.

oh yeah, I unplugged the knock sensor. its cracked so no good. no engine knock but i dont wanna send the ecu a bad signal.

Knock sensor bad or disconnected will cause the ECU to retard the timing enough to make the engine run sluggishly and rich.
