Hi guys



A friend is having difficulties getting to the bottom of this idle hunt, so I thought I would post it here.



The ECU stores no fault codes so I have advised the following, and that's all been checked.



- Replace coolant temperature sensor


- Check for vacuum leaks around inlet manifold


- Replace MAP sensor


- Replace Idle control valve


- Check/replace spark plugs


- Check/clean distributor cap


- Check/replace thermostat




Next on his list is a new throttle body with TPS, and to try another set of HT leads and distributor.



Cheers

Check the map sensor, try replacing.. then check if the wiring to the sensor is ok. If you have an fcd connected might be a loose contact in its green wire. Check the earths beside the icv aswell..

Quite often its the idle control assembly under the throttle body - give it a good clean out or even bypass it to see if there is any change
