PAUL MARRIOTT Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 My tick over has suddenly increased, was sat at about 1000 but now won't go below 11 - 1200 even with adjust screw fully backed off. Going to check it out tonight, any thoughts on what I should look for other than something mechanical? Paul M.
henry21p Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 temp senders reporting incorrectly and therefore assuming the car is in cold idle on the emerald map? tps? tried recalibrating the settings in the emerald for the throttle range?
PAUL MARRIOTT Posted July 31, 2006 Author Posted July 31, 2006 Good one - I've changed to SPA gauges recently so could have upset the ECU sensor. Thanks Dave.
Myles Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Throttle-cable sticking (esp. in the heat) or trapped between your airbox(?) and the bonnet. Try pulling the throttle-pedal back towards you and see if the revs drop - if they do, something is sticking. Project Scope-Creep is live...

PAUL MARRIOTT Posted August 1, 2006 Author Posted August 1, 2006 Thanks Myles but throttle cable and levers are all free and clear - I'm hopefully in the garage tonight so will double check. Paul M
