One of the issues I was running into was setting up the idle in the Terminator X. It says the IAC value should be between 2-10 when at title and up to temp. It was sitting around 44 and when I took it out for a spin, it would stall when you let off the throttle.
The way you setup the IAC is using the adjustment screw on the throttle body that opens/closes the throttle plate. If the value is to high, like in my case, you need to open the plate until the value comes down. The problem I had is the screw stripped out on my original TB.
I picked up a used OEM TB of eBay and cleaned it up and soaked the screw in penetration oil overnight. I then hit it with a lot of heat and she came right out. I also flipped it so I could adjust it from above. After a lot of back and forth I got the IAC to 6.
I took her for spin and everything was working as it should. Trans shifted great, all temps were good and I started the braking bedding process. I ended up driving if for about 45 minutes in total. This motor turns the tons and 40s with ease. I’m really stoked being done with this part of the build!!
