I was able to put the ELR in differant positions and get it to idle higher but the increase (and decrease when spun down to lower numbers) in idle is only showing up in the engine I can hear it/feel it/see it
but no change on the tach
It still stalls and it only seems to happen at the most embarassing times.
as for the trans in a normal consistant throttle pressure type of take off
it holds on to gears too long
it will rap up to 3500 or 4000rpm then shift
(I know it will do this when you stomp on it but this is easy cruising and shouldn't do that)
in 3rd and 4th gear 1st and 2nd aren't so bad
then it hits like a flat spot around 40mph I push on the throttle and it builds speed slowly it wasn't like that before this stalling issue
in order to get it to up shift after it raps up I have to let off the pedal alittle for it to shift
than when it does shift sometimes it immediatly downshifts
oh a I'll mention the clunk when it downshifts from 3rd to 2nd but that doesn't always happen
I'm sure I did say this before but this might be a symptom the car is harder to start now
I have to crank it for like 7 seconds and that started the same day
so that first day when I had to crank it awhile and it seemed a little grumpy I knew something was up because it took like 2-3 seconds to fire before this stalling thing
every vac. line in the engine bay has been replaced
