Title: problem when i press clutch, or put into neutral
Post by: dawchiks on 11 August 2008, 14:49:08

i have a problem when i press clutch, or put into neutral. when i press clutch , or put into neutral rpm supposed to fall to about 700. but now it falls down to 500 or even lover. if it falls lower than like 350 then the car just turns off. its not allways that the car just turns off ( dont know that word in english), but its kind of stupid, if u know that it can happen any minute. its not allways that rpm goes to 500 or lower. sometimes it falls down to 700, but mostry to about 500. and sometimes lower.  it started yesterday.another problem which happens VERY rarely - I've had like 4 times in a half year when im into gear and and suddenly puff, the car shuts down, steering wheel blocks. its kind of dangerous :D.

sorry for bad english.

Sounds like the Idle Control Valve needs cleaning first of all.

Hope the above cures your problem.
I have a similar problem. Whenever I press the accelerator I don't seem to go anywhere!! Should've got a V6!!
