Turbosleeper Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 So I just did the pcv system on my 98 s70 yesterday and changed the cap and rotor. After I had all back together I started it and realized I had accidentally plugged the 1 into the 3 and vice versa on the cap. So I swapped it and started the car and it feels a bit rough right now and is slowly getting better. It accelerates fine but hesitant on idle. If I rev the engine on idle the rpms go up but slowly come down. I am thinking the following two things. 1)The gasket I used was brand new but was starting to peel to the point where you could see the metal within. I used it anyways cause well I didnt have a choice. Possibly a bad seal, vacuum leak? 2) I didnt have engine cleaner so I used a bit of wd40 to clean the intake manifold. I would of thought the wd40 to evap right away or atleast burn off when I start car. Could it be this? Is the cap wiring and fire order the same on an s70 as a 850? It should I would think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should I would think check to see if you got that stupid bracket near #5 hung in between the head and the IM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbosleeper Posted September 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Theres no bracket there =) lol But I installed a boost gauge today to see my vac readings and its 15 in park and 14 in D idle. I guess Im going to have to get another gasket and just replace that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
