By turning up the idle to about 1100, and increasing the idle speed torque I was able to drastically reduce the number of misfires. I understand that this is not a fix, but it does help with my sanity some. Now i don't feel like accidentally driving my car off a cliff

I'll post up some logs at idle soon

Thanks again.

Per Bentley -
(stock)
At idle: approx. 3.5 bar (50 psi)
After 10 minutes (after engine is off): at least 2.5 bar (36 psi)

I was bleeding off fuel pressure too quickly a while back....causing the car to sometimes not start on the first try. Second try, it always started. Turned out to be a bad Fuel Pressure Regulator.

Bad TB tensioner or cam tensioner?

Mr Paul [T-28]

I am going to change the TB soon, so that will at least eliminate TB tensioner.

FWIW, turning the idle up to 1100 and turning the idle torque value up with lemmiwinks really helped. I know that is a bandaid to the problem, not a fix, but would that tell us any info on what is wrong?

Mr Paul [T-28]

Sound OK to you?

@wesome

hell it could be a boost leak at that point :P

Should have asked earlier, but what are the LTFT readings?

basically, the cost of repair is more than buying new. I still don't think I should have to pay.
