I also drive like an old man. If you're always flooring it and bouncing off redline between gears that's not doing you any favours.


Right. :-), which is hard to do in my celica st unless you want people honking at you to get the hell going lol :-P

With the manual it wasn't so bad, flat out it'd hit 60 in 10 secs or less. The only time I'd get onto it was on the interstate entrance ramp or if I happened to pull out in front of someone entering the highway. Otherwise I'd take it to 3,000 and go to the next gear. Usually I'd go from third to fifth as well.

Wow. Im sure this idle thing is causing quite a bit of performance loss cause like I stated earlier it doesn't have any pep till it hits like 4k rpm. So Hopefully after this gets resolved it will be a little bit quicker and that my gas mileage will return to normal.

Oh by the way sorry to not keep everyone updated but I took off the valve cover to replace the broken PCV valve and like an idiot im always messing with crap and try to do weird things so now that I got the PCV valve out ima try and paint the valve cover :-P lol. The last picture was done in Photoshop I was messing around with designs and this is what I think I will try to attempt to paint.

Timing out of whack will cause it to run like a dog.
