Another Idle Question

Recommended Posts

Hardgraf

Would use the search facility but difficult to search for my specific engine\ ignition system.

 

I have an S16 engine in my 205. During the snow it started spluttering, misfire, erratic acceleration etc. I thought this was probably a coil pack or ignition amp issue. Fortunatly these symptoms ceased & the car returned to normal.

 

However, this morning the car is idling at 2k rpm. Like constantly driving heel & toe which is quite annoying. Any ideas?

 

Cheers

check for air leaks, most notably to the idle valve, and where the manifold is bolted to the head :)

 

also check the throttle cable adjustment.

just humor me on this, but try swapping the leads round on the 2 ignition modules
