wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction i have an 89 s13 with a ca. its been stored since nov. i run it every once and a while, fuel stab , a lil bit of new gas to keep everythign fresh etc. anyways i havent been able to actually out drive it but when it starts and idles its fine, once it get warm the idle drops and lumps around at 5-600 rpm, rev it it stumbles for a quick second then fine doesnt miss holding it at 1500-4000 rpm. does it just need a good shit kicking and drive it ? anything to do with the -30 degrees? lol thanks for your time

I’d suggest cleaning the IACV.  
I know its a common thing on RB’s to have sporadic idle if certain things aren’t in clean and peak condition.

Could be the temperature causing it to happen.

I’ve got a buddy with a CA aswell, and it idles fine, but kind of takes a plunge when you hit the throttle.

Doese’nt sound serious though.

Dropping resistors controls the voltage at the injectors…
