hi guys, my cars just started playing up! when i drive it with low revs and in vacuum the engine splutters and also idles crap. but when it goes in to boost it runs fine. today i changed the plugs, leads. rotor arm and cap, and the lamda sensor and but it still the same. no fault codes. cant hear any air leaking out. my car has a hks fuel controller, could it be this playing up? when the cars on boost it runs fine.
cheers guys

fixed

check your injector plugs/connections mine came loose as there are no clips to hold them on
and was doing similar to what you describe

checked all that and changed the map sensor and afm and its still doing it. the fuel controller has a eids light that comes on when it splutters and stays on for about 10 seconds when it idles.
its doing me head in!

what is the idle vacuum?
what its always been. went for a short drive today and the fuel controller is displaying double the revs! at idle its showing 1800rpm and the rev counter is showing 900 and at 2000 its showing 4000rpm.
