has anyone seen this before
okay, my car has run great since it came out of storage a little over a month ago, changed the oil right when it came out, and used up all the gas in the tank to get rid of the fuel stabilizer. The other day i started it and instead of idling high for the first min, it idled low, around 500rpm. It stayed at that idle all the way to work, about a 7min drive. It drove fine the whole way, no stumbles, i revved it up and it was running fine, just idling crappy. Then the next day it was gone and the car was fine for a couple of days, now its doing the 500rpm idle again, and it even cut out on me a couple of times, like lost all electrical, then back up again without killing the motor. What the hell is going on.
Thanks Todd |
can anyone offer a suggestion please
|
pretty please, need some help
|
Might be the gas. Sounds like there is water in it or the fuel stablizer din't work too well.
Also sounds kinda like the opti it if starts to stumble when the car is up to temp. |
Maybe your IAC valve is gummed up. I have had to clean mine before.
|
okay, sounds good, what do i use to clean the IAC, don't want to wreck it. Thanks for all the advice guys, i'll try cleaning the IAC, cause thats the easiest and start from there.
