The only problem I have is the perge solonoid(Which is only for emissions). When its plugged up it causes my car to have problems starting and it idles wierd. When its unplugged its fine. I replaced the perge solonoid and it still did that so I am guessing the charcoal canister is clogged. When emissions are about to come up(December 2006) I am going to get the canister replaced.

What ECU are you running with it and what OBD is the engine?

I know when I do the OBD2 to OBD1 conversion with my P72, it has issues idling when cold and unplugging the solenoid helps, but when I have the OBD2 ECU in there, everything is normal.

I am running a P72 OBD-1 ECU, The engine is OBD-2. The shop told me that the stock wiring would not plug up to the OBD-2 ECU so I would either have to get an Si ecu which I did not want to do since they had my car long enough or convert to OBD-1. I think I still had problems when the car was warm. Either way I think I am going to convert back to OBD-2 somehow when emissions are about to come up.
