1.0L 12V running wrong

Post by rsi-dan »

My Mate is having problems with there 1.0l 12v its not idleing as it should sound like it about to cut out and cuts out when brakeing the revs have to be kept at 2k or it will cut out

Ive look at the ICV and cleaned it all out what else could it be ?

Cud be a block in a vacuum pipe but not sure sounds like starvation of fuel tho if it has to be at 2k sounds like not enough fuel is getting in the system
If it ain't green and black send it back :D

I'd change the icv, I find they never take to being cleaned

If you start it and let idle for q couple minutes does the eml come on?
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:
