Experiences with HKS S-AFR

**MartinGouda** · 01-10-2005, 08:30 PM

i know at least two of the board members have used this unit.. i am looking at tossing one in the celi now that she will be a keeper so i can play with my air and fuel ratios how did you guys like it...

i am not intrested in an SAFC or SAFCII or any other peice of ricey, no ecu having, ugly looking technology in the car so please don't try to tell me why blue lights are cooler than the rest and why i should buy them.

i am mostly intrested in the EIDS function... i have a very old car with a choppy engine that waves the rpms alot at idle... think this would help?

Clean or change the ICV. That's mostly reason for bouncy idle. Or worn and old coil if you're still using the stock one. Mine with 240k idle within 10rpm.

what is the ICV?

**Pineapple** · 01-11-2005, 11:33 AM

Idle Control Valve. The thing seat below TB with 2 coolant hose and 1 air hose on it. With a green plug too.
Remove intake hose. Use throttle body cleaner to clean the TB and the holes to the ICV.
