Title: Erratic Idle.
Post by: BC on 08 November 2008, 14:52:13
Hell this car's jinxed! Engine has started running very rough. When starting from cold it fires first time but after a few seconds revs will idle as high as 2.5k and can sit there for up to a minute, during this the engine light comes on. once fully warmed up things seem to suite a little though power is down. Anyone had similar issues?

Cheers

Bryan

Sounds like the ICV needs cleaning.

Definately sounds like dirty ICV - clean out with carb cleaner, oil & refit.
