Didn't want to thread jack http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=112487for my own issues, so new thread.
Since the initial startup of my new engine, I've been chasing a couple of electronic and fuel issues.
Basically, the car started and idled fine at first. The check engine light was on, and I was getting two codes:
P0182-Fuel Temperature Sensor Circuit Low Input
P0193-Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit High Input
After reading the possible causes of the codes, I went through my wiring harness and found a couple of loose connections near the computer/fuse box. I'm fairly sure those are fixed now. Immediately after that, I started the car and it seemed to run, but then started dying at idle. A/F mix was off the gauge on the lean side. I checked codes again and now I had
P0182-Fuel Temperature Sensor Circuit Low Input
P2193-System Too Lean at Higher Load Bank 2
Next I checked all my vacuum lines, and they were all leak free, but my Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor had a small leak to it. I'm not sure if that's supposed to be like that, but I imagine not. Before I spend $160 on a new one, I was wondering if there was a way to actually test the sensor. At this point, I reset the codes and the check engine light went off. The codes were still showing if you checked them though.
I let the car sit overnight, then went out to start it this morning. The check engine light and the codes were still showing. I reset them, and the light stayed off, but the codes didn't clear. I went for a drive and it seemed like everything was working. A few light pulls and regular driving. Coming off the throttle to a stop brought the rpms down to like 500, but it would immediately pick back up. As I was coming back into my neighborhood, the car went off the gauge lean on a light pull. Not sure what's wrong, as it was working five minutes prior.
Ideas? I'm going to recheck the vacuum lines and wiring tonight, but I'm thinking its my FRPS.
