My SHO has been doing some weird random stuff lately.

was driving, and any time I put my foot on the clutch the RPM's would hunt up and down between 1000 and 2000... happened only just twice recently. Hasn't done it lately, that was a month ago or so.

I also occasionally get hard starts when warm; and as of today it stalled for the very first time while I was going into a left turn. I had downshifted into second and then it just died.

The hunting RPM I shrugged off because it seemed to stop doing it, the hard starts when warm had me mildly concerned, but the stalling without any warning is not cool!

I coasted through the turn, and had enough momentum to pull over, it fired back up right away and I continued to drive on.

Only got 2 codes...

111 - System checks ok
and
528 - System shows voltage at pin 10 (is A/C on ?) or pin 30 (PNP, CPP switch) - PNP

Possible cam sensor?
Crank sensor was done not more than 30,000km ago

Mine is doing almost the same thing.


When I'm rolling to a stop, she revs between 1K and 1800. Then, I go into a store and it's really hot out, I'll have to rev it up a bit to keep it started when I restart it. Doesn't just stall out on me though when it's finally running and sometimes doesn't rev hunt.

Idles like CRAP when it's cold lately too!

I'm going to get some MAF cleaner today and see if that helps.............

Tried the MAF cleaner and it fixed my "hiccup".

As for the idle hunting and ****** idle, I found a vac line that was torn. It's the one that goes from between the TB and IAC down to a sensor.
