Hi the car is new to me and been off the road a while. It won't come down from 1200 revs even when warm. I removed the throttle body and the air flow metre from the car and cleaned with carb cleaner. They were a bit oily. No obvious air leaks. Sprayed the manifold and pipes with carb cleaner but no rise I revs. Checked the water slide valve, that works. Had it in a jug of hot water and you can see it working. Any ideas? Thanks Jed
I checked the idle screw on the l tronic air flow metre and it only works by increasing the idle. I removed the thing below and connected the pipe direct from the inlet manifold to the dizzy. It reduced the idle but ran lumpy. Any thoughts
