The MT seems alot more responsive though, just me.... Way back when I bought my 07 LB, I test drove both AT and MT.... I honestly only got about 6ft when I stopped in the AT and asked for the keys to the MT... that's just me I guess..

mikenacarato · 11-01-2008, 09:51 PM

that is awesome!

Want to improve your gas mileage and acceleration?
Teach your right foot to "squeeze" down on the gas pedal; don't stomp down on it.

This is especially true for cars with automatic transmission.

i thought this had happend to me the first time i got my MT, i floored it and nothing, until the wheels caught pavement and launched me...

Learning standard was an interesting experience ;]

Okay kinda a update i solved my problem. Today i was adding new windshield washer fluid to my car and was looking at my intake. And about a week ago i took it off to clean the filter. I noticed the hose from the pcv to the intake was disconected. I dont know if it fell off from the engine vibration or i forgot to reconect it when isntalling my intake =). So i have a huge leak of unmetered air that is after the maf sensor. Crazy thing is my vehicle never ran funny or idled rough except for when i would mash on the gas. Surprised my oxygen sensor didnt pick it up and set a engine code.

So if anyone is experiencing this and has a aftermarket intake i would go out and check that first =).

marcus · 11-03-2008, 12:59 PM

theres the culprit...

Tamago · 11-03-2008, 01:28 PM

sounds like your car isn't running right

edit: just read the thread.. ;) my bad

llimonce · 11-03-2008, 06:26 PM

i have the same problem in my MT sedan.. but the blitz controller i´ts expensive to me..

i think it´s possible to calibrate the sensor located in the pedal.. i planning to calibrate that sensor soon

YarisSedan · 11-03-2008, 11:05 PM

Well this will go on my list of mods that i plan to do if i win the lottery, Blitz supercharger, blize throttle contoller, rear disk brake conversion and so on

The delay does bother me too...I have owned mostly manual transmission cars and I also ride motorcycles and still stalled that Yaris the first couple times I got in it.

I want that Blitz controller but if something cheaper comes out before I am ready to buy I would def consider it.

mikenacarato · 12-11-2008, 05:17 AM

ill have a good answer as to if the blitz unit works next week.

I used to think I was an excellent clutch driver. then I bought this yaris. I've stalled this car more times than my metro and festiva combined and I've only had it 7 months. At first I figured it was a touchy clutch but now i blame the drive by wire. they need to build a 10th of a second delay into the dang clutch pedal so it matches the gas pedal. :-) actually, that would probably make things worse.
