Title: Rocking idle
Post by: carlos_fandango on 09 June 2008, 17:15:49

Hi folks, cured my crank sensor problem, but now at idle the car rocks from side to side. It is actually visable from the exterior of the car.

Any ideas?
I was thinking maybe timing might be out but can't think why it would be?   :-?

TIA Carlos

Is it idling smoothly? apart from the rocking.

Its kinda weird, at low revs say 500 it doesn't do it but idles like poo.
Yet when i increase the revs say 650 it starts rocking.

I could take it over to america and put it up against the bouncing cars  ;D
