Some of you may be following my build thread, but I decided to post a new thread concerning this issue so I can hopefully get some feedback and get the problem resolved ASAP.
I am running the Mountaineer's auto computer with an m5r2 manual transmission and I have a few issues.
1. Unsteady idle. When I depress the clutch to shift gears the rpm's shoot way up instead of going down, and then take several seconds to come back down. At stop lights it sounds like I'm flooring it and then it dies down to an extremely slow unsteady idle after a few seconds. I don't understand why idle speed is affected by having a different transmission, I just assumed it was a nonadjustable computer parameter.
Can this be fixed without a tune? I can have the CEL codes removed, but as far as an actual tune goes they are wanting to charge way more than I want to spend at the moment.
2. Occasional hesitation. It's almost like it misfires once every couple of minutes.
Any ideas? I know the computer wants OSS, ISS, and TCCS so how best can I tackle this? Anything I should try before resorting to a tune? If I can get this resolved without a tune then all I'll have to worry about is getting rid of the CEL's.
