Default Engine cutting out

ok anyone have this problem...

car runs absolutely awesome except at idle. at idle if you wait a few seconds the RPM's start to drop... almost like its gonna stall but it doesnt. but it sure sounds like it wants too. if you tap the accelerator it drops back downs to like 500 almost stalls and comes back up only to start chokin again... interesting...

haven't had that problem on the Z, but I did have the same problem on the ITR. On the ITR it was either a loose throttle cable or a poorly wired piggy back computer.

Try changing the plugs and cleaning your injectors.

I had that problem RIGHT after I installed my Injen intake. I went away after a week, but it does come back every now and then.
