Corvette can't run idle
Hi, I do some mods on my vette an now, she can't run idle. If I dont gave some gaz, the vette stop.
I put some headers, chrome valve cover and drop base air cleaner.
They only thing I touch is the o2 sensor and maybe the electric choke with the drop base air cleaner.
Some one can help me ?
Thanks

Whew...where to start, that's the question.
#1, look for any hoses you might have mis/disconnected to see if you've created a vaccum leak.
#2, look to see if you might have a conflict with the electric choke where the cleaner is holding it open.
Dumb question, but I take it you also tried putting the old air cleaner back on?

I try the old air cleaner and I got the same problems.. But, when I look under the air cleaner, on the carbs, I saw the front inlet (the small one) still open.. I can't close it.
This inlet work with the electric choke ?
