    Default Idle issues after fixing MAP sensor leak!!!

    Hey guys, I just fixed a leak that I had on the tube that goes to the map sensor and wasnt letting me run in SD. The motor idled fine before with just the MAF but now that I fixed that leak the motor hardly runs with just the MAP and with MAP and MAF it runs a very weak idle, if I rev it, it drops down to 300rpms and is hunting for idle for a few seconds then it finaly sets in at 950. Without the maf it idles very rough and if I rev it when the rpms come down it just dies.

    Is this something I can easily fix as I belive it only needs a little more air at idle to compensate for the fixed leak. I'm a newb still so if you can tell me which tables I would

    Thanks,
    Paul.

    not sure what all you did tuning-wise before you fixed the MAP, but I'd venture to say your PCM is in the process of re-learning idle. What's your WB AFR at idle?

    Didnt do much to the tune, there was a time that the car would hold idle at close to 3k rpms when moving but would come down to 950 when stopped. Then it just probably learned it and was working good, so I guess now its back to relearn? How can I delete/reset the learned values?

    I don't recall the exact procedure, but you can find it by searching ls1tech for PCM reset. I believe a full flash will clear learned idle trims as well.
