Adjusting The Idle On A Miata
Просмотров 112 тыс.11 лет назад
A little video to show you how to adjust the idle speed and idle switch on a Mazda Miata.
In have a problem with a 91 motor runs alright but no power under 4000rpm can you help me?
THE GAUGE CLIPS HAVE A BUTTON ON THE EACH SIDE
You’re my hero! Thank you!
I have a 92 and my tps has 4 pins in it how do I test that because what you described is just 3 pins. My issue is when I put the AC on or go from park to reverse or drive it almost stalls and shakes bad.
What should be the output voltage of the air flow meter at idle
?? Resistance you mean? You’re on a 12V system. Do voltage is 12V Resistance. Usually changes on sensors as they’re thermistors.
How did you block off lines that run to thermostat hiusing
Housing*
You forgot to record those 5 connectors at the back of the cluster that are pain to disconnect without braking them.
I've Adjusted my idle srew down until i can't anymore but no joy. What else can i try to get my idle speed down ?
Hopefully you've figured it out by now, but there are a few other things that can cause a high idle. 1: Your throttle body butterfly had the plastic seal cleaned off during a throttle body cleaning. To remedy this, you need to adjust the throttle butterfly stop screw. This can be see from above and behind the throttle body, and is a screw that physically stops the butterfly from closing too far. It is close to where the throttle cable connects to the round spring loaded part. You need to break the nut on it loose, then adjust it using an allen key from the front. Note that this stop is calibrated and painted to seal it in place from the factory, but if your plastic seal on the butterfly was cleaned off, you need to adjust it. You may need to adjust your throttle position sensor as shown in this video after adjusting this stop screw. 2: There is a small restrictor inside the valve cover breather hose that goes from the driver's side of the valve cover to the chrome pipe on the front of the valve cover. If you replaced this breather hose, the new one did not come with this restrictor in it, which will cause a high idle. You can cut the restrictor out of the old hose or buy one from a Mazda dealer. The part number for this restrictor is B61P13986 and the orientation it is installed in the breather hose does not matter. 3: Some sort of vacuum leak. Air may be getting into the intake system after the mass air flow sensor. Look for cracked pipes or missing covers.
Also a note, the restrictor in the breather hose only applies to 1.6 Miatas (90-93 in US)
Nicely done man ...
Thanks bro for such a useful video clip. I am about to do this next weekend. Thanks again.
thank u for this, had to adjust my tps to get the idle down
The two plugs that are attached to the gages on the drivers side that are at an angle are a bitch to try and get out. Im still farting around with it. Any trick to those two getting them out?
I had the similar problem as you. I sent to DNA speedometer and got mine fixed! they are legit if your still looking for a solution for your USDM cluster
Thanks this helped alot
Whats a spec miata?
Spec Miata is a Miata racecar compilant to race in the Spec Miata series. Engine, transmission and differential is basically stock. You get to change the suspension, brakes, wheels and tires as well as safety stuff is required. You could still have a street legal Spec Miata racecar depending on the State inspection requirements.
Whats the size for screws for the air valve
8mm
My iddle switch only triggers when moving the iddle slightly. Full throttle test fails. I get nothing. I have the high iddle problem. What do you think??
When you replaced the cluster, your odometer didn't reset?
I'd like to know this answer too :)
Nice vid good job
Mine was doing exactly the same thing. Turns out that I had left the throttle position sensor unplugged when I was cleaning the throttle body. So definitely check your TPS is within specs before doing anything else.
To adjust the idle you need to use a jumper in the service port box, pre OBD2 models. All clean out idle valve as someone has also mentioned.
Oh 1 other thing, what did you do about the low oil warning light that is usually connected to the oil pressure gauge? Did you disable it somehow?
gav240z i have the same problem. Curious what the fix is.
Thanks mate, good tutorial. I like the white face gauges, they are hard to find at a reasonable price though. Usually $500+. I have the black version of the 99 spec cluster, I also have an AU/Euro version of a cluster with the rare OEM 280 km/h speedo and I have the stock JDM 1995 version. Not sure what I'll fit yet, but this video helps me because when my car was detailed they put some shitty cleaning agent on my cluster glass and now it has hairline cracks all over it. So I'm going to change the cluster glass at a minimum.
my miata does the same thing..high idle so it never really stalls which is good but i wasnt sure the idle was normal at 1500..i want a solution not a hack to mask the problem..also its choking..like if i try to rev it up it will choke almost to stalling then slowly go back up to 1500..not a problem with granny driving but..cant rev match );
Have you figured out what was the problem? My '90 is doing just that and I can't seem to find the cause after 5 weeks. I tested just about everything
@@TheZProtocol Did you find a solution?
@@rwdlocked963 not yet
I have a 90 miata. I replaced almost everything on this car it's doing the same. So I replaced the tps sensor it jercks when you let off and on the throttle.
I have since found that there can be other problems and that adjusting the idle screw is only masking it.i cleaned the idle senser valve and found that it runs better and there are probable more reasons and the mass air flow is worth cleaning to as it does not cost much but a can of mass air flow cleaner.the early ones have a vane that I don't think can be cleaned
Does the blocking it off cause any issues?
if you cant adjust the idle how did he managed to?.in my workshop manual it said set at the factory but no good if it is idleing at 1500 revs
Did you find a solution
Dipshit HACK!
FYI Miata are on a open loop system u cant adjust idle, injectors none of that learn before you have someone mess up there car
Than what are idle adjustment screws for?
Great info on the FD. Hope the video keep coming.
