syclone #1322
well after months of banging my head, i finally got the syclone running like it suppose to, a few month ago i posted some threads on what my problems were, and didnt get much response, or help, but that turned to be a good thing, cause i figured out what it was, and learned alot about these motors, the electrical part anyway. i change alot of things, cap,rotor,distributor,o2,mapsensor,coolant temp,wire,plugs,vacuum lines,mat sensor, and some other things, after a lot of reading and googleing, the syclone is running sweet, idle great now, which is the problem i was having, bad idle, and it would die on idle, when i connected the laptop, the only dtc error, was map low, or high, i like this site, and there alot of good helpful people, but this particular time nobody knew what it could have been. or had and idea.:tup:

The lower intake gasket is the cause of bad idle on numerous trucks. Any oil residue between the valve covers and lower intake are suspect. Then I'd say look for bad plug wires, vac lines, or maybe even a drippy injector if trying to smooth the idle out. All were crap on my truck. Purred like a kitten after i figured it all out. Then I shoved a cam in there to get rid of my perfect idle. :) Good job solving the prob on your own...

Sometimes you have to learn on you're on. That is the best way, to bad sometimes it ends up costing much more without help. I'm glad it is running good for you, I would of helped if I knew how. :oops:
