Car needs a tap to idle every start up!
So... after replacing all the vaccum lines, turbos, fuel lines pulsation and evaporator for the fuel, etc.. I finally set my idle just right to 800rpms. The car idles perfect once it starts and driving around but after the initial warm up start, say when i park at home depot and come back to start her up again it always needs a tap on the gas or two to hold the idle... what could it be?
Alex
P.S. to get the TPS just right i tighten the fast idle screw almost all the way up and closed the air screw on the TB to almost all the way.

You can adjust the TPS by loosening the mounting screws that hold it to the throttle body and rotating it. The holes are slightly eccentric to allow for this adjustment.
I would try to adjust the idle bleed screw (maybe there is a reason mazda calls it that) open more and then adjust the idle stop screw to adjust the idle speed.
It is worth a shot.

^ That is most certainly true. But is the cranking injection time seperate from the running injection time on the PFC?
I still think there is a problem with the idle control or the idle bleed screw, something of that nature.
Op, what EMS does the car have? PFC?
