search.


i just did a bunch of research on the piggy cos i'm buying one. what is happening to your car is normal. it takes a good week for the piggy back to completely learn your car. During the learning period your car is gonna idle funny, and probably stall a few times.

even after the piggy has learned, you still may experience a rough idle every now and again.

Which version of the piggy are you using?
How many times have you gone through your connections to ensure everything was soldered properly?
Are you getting a CEL?
Did you install anything else the day you installed the piggy?

Feed us some info, and we'll gladly troubleshoot with you.

Check your wiring.
MAke sure the fuel rail is properly installed, not leaking, fuel lines aren't bent.

What CEL are you going to put on?

CEL means Check Engine Light. My question was: did it come ON?

in that case, go to auto-zone or something and get the codes.
1 code will be for the header, and let us know if there is any other codes coming up.

Sounds like vacuum leak on fuel rail and not the piggy. Again piggy seems to get a bad wrap for something that it does not cause. Regardless, check connections. Onlyt guys with these problems are guys who goofed up installing it.
