Title: 93 Sidekick 16V idle issue
Post by: Drone637 on September 08, 2007, 08:29:02 PM
Here is a fun one for you.  At idle it drops a couple of cylinders.  Like... 2-4.  Doesn't like reving up really high either.  Just picked this car up, the previous owner rebuilt the head and replaced the filter and fuel pump.

Any ideas?

could have the plug wires on wrong, the book is, could have gotten dirt in the injectors if the screens are rusted.

Do a search on 16v and check zuwharrie.  The disty rotates counter clockwise.  Check the simple and free things first.

There's also an idle adjuster screw on the throttle body, sometimes turning it 1/4 turn(or less) clockwise can help. Mke sure to mark it before you move it, just in case you need to move it back.

Timing is right, plugs are right.  Looking at either injectors or computer.

The Computer doesn't have the cap issue, already checked that.  Sadly, I really want a Noid kit so I can check the injectors easily...  Anyone know a good way to test them without tearing the intake manifold apart?

Not really, you might just have to take half of it apart, you could call trail tough and ask Brent.

Took it apart.  Two of the injectors fail to go click when you hit them with 12v.  Guess I call Hawk Suzuki tomorrow and get some more since the parts stores are 5 days out on replacements.  :)
