  • Festiva drops the rpm when clutch is push down?

    Hello there folks, i have a question. I have a bp install with a G-series tranny and a spec clutch. I cant seem to figure out why the rpm drops when i step on the clutch but would slowly creep up to 900 rpm. I hope one of the experts could help. Thanks!

      load compensation.... the rotating mass of the gears helps keep things spinning and when you depress the clutch, that mass becmes uncoupled and your IAC isn't fast enough to compensate.

        Any chance the ECM is an automatic? Sounds like that kind of logic..
