Rob 989 Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Hi guys I have abit of a problem when my car has reached temp it runs fine then when you switch it off and leave for say 10 mins and go back to it and turn it on it will take a longer to fire up then I get a real bad idle and most of the time will cut out. But if u sit on the throttle at about 2000 rpm it seems to sort it after a few mins. It's doing my head in anyone got any ideas cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob 989 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 not enough choke?I don't know mate. I have been thinking maybe throttle position sensor or maybe map sensor? I'm going to get an earthing kit aswel because it's gotta help steady the idle abit anyone have any ideas? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
