Idleing High For First 5 Mins

[andieep82]

hi have recently had my engine forged and now when i start the vechile it idles high at around 1500 and stays like that for around 5 mins, could this be due to the automatic choke sensor?? need some advice cheers

Does it settle down once warm?

If so it's fine, happens to alot of people :harhar:

Automatic choke?

its cause the engines cold

i thought all starlets did that. Mine idles at about 1500-1700 and drops as it gets warmer and warmer, doubt it is anything to worry about.

Its the coolant temp sensor telling the rest of the electronic stuff that the cars cold and it needs to warm up....i.e idle high get the oil/water warmed for better fuel effeciency reduced engine wear

by no means is it a bad thing totally normal :harhar:
