Help!!

So, my s13(CA18DET) is having some issues, when i start it(cold start) i need to keep my foot on the gas or else it dies, when its upto temp it seems better but will still die once or twice and when it does not die it idles at around 850-950rpm, and if i put my lights on it just dies instantly if im not keeping the revs up??? What could it be??

There is a problem !
Did you set the idlinhg up a bit ? That could help ,
Or its time for a good dyno again ,

Your cold start map and temp compensation map is not set up right.

but how could it lose it after 7months? that time when I dynod it al workd 100%, choke workd etc

You will have to start fault finding, check whether all the sensors is working, check if your map is the same as you remember...funny shit happens buddy...obveously there might be something else wrong...but that is the obveous...

I cant check my map, dont have the right program to see, and cant download it anywhere

Oh and my engine temp sensor etc is working

What management you running, then I don't know buddy...if all the hardware is in good working order, then I don't know?

Mr Turbo, then it can only be the map, iv emailed RBTS to see if they have my old map still to compare for me

I have Mr. turbo 1.68 and 1.69....

I do to, but when i plug into my laptop, it either doesnt pick up or it picks up then freezes, but it may be that im using RD232 to USB and not the non USB cable?

Thats speed setting on you com port...and or the driver for your RD232 to usb....

How do i set that stuff?

Shit man, hard to explain, try and get your laptop and car to me at some stage, also bring the driver along....this is if you want to....

Ok i just got a firewire driver for my windows, will install it to laptop and see if it goes better, if it does ill save the map to the pc and see if i can open it up to see whats what

cool.

Whats the best plug in procedure? Start the car then plug in or plug in then start?

plug in then start although it should not hurt doing it the other way around...

Ok so with the friewire update its a lot better, but after a minute or so it freezes the whole time and i have to close it, then it says comm error and wont pick up

That is speed on the com port...it's either to slow or to fast...
