Engine idle raise drop, cold… DJet help.
My 1.7 when started, the idle will go up and down, even for about an hour of driving. After an hour (here or there) the idle stays up and drops for awhile. And then it is fine… but can drop back down sometimes. On hotter days, it seems like it is faster to a normal running idle. I had 4 ideas: 1.)Cold temp sensors, I know there are 2 but I am unsure about it. Or how to test. 2.)Fuel/vacuum. This was my 1st thought, so I have new lines around the motor and the top of the tank. And the injectors have been re-built. but still could be djet. 3.)I have a really old muffler that needs replacing. warms up, can breate... 4.)Air in. (I know ill start some fights here, but it has the oil mess, I swear it can not get enough air) Any ideas? It’s a daily driver, and it is annoying as heck. |

Check your TPS setting and make sure youare really using the idle curcuit.
Look at PP site, or Anders Djet site for the proper ohm meter test to ensure you are using the idle circuit when at idle. Rich |
