VAFC Hack, Weird Idle?
 
I switched to the VAFC hack 2 days ago and my car is running pretty good now except for a weird idle problem. The cars idles good but once it has warmed up if you let idle for about 30 seconds it will suddenly bog down to about 500 rpm for a second and almost die, then instaltly go back to 7-800 rpm and idle fine for about another 30 seconds then do the same. While driving it runs fine, never bogs or anything. Ive tried resetting the ecu, it still does it though. Its really annoying, has anyone else seen this or have any ideas? TIA!!!

no, but you definatley need to play around with your settings on the AFC. It works good for me.

If there is no other problem with connections or settings...try some intake cleaner...I've seen cars do this where there's alot of carbon built up on the idle air control...
