D11PS 146 Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Afternoon all, I've just taken the car for a spin after doing the clutch and it's running real lumpy on idle and hunting, sometimes it cuts out but plant your foot down and the VR song comes on.Any advice would be appreciatedThanks Bealieboy 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Bealieboy 1,625 Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Dips, is this your idle control valve playing up or have you got a vacuum leak somewhere? D11PS 1 Link to post Share on other sites
D11PS 146 Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) I don't think I've got an idle control valve....possibly a vacc leak but I don't know where to start. It's an OBD2 Edited January 13, 2015 by D11PS Bealieboy 1 Link to post Share on other sites

VR6king 18 Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 I would need more details, what do you refer to when you say lumpy on idle? Link to post Share on other sites
D11PS 146 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 I would need more details, what do you refer to when you say lumpy on idle?When the cars stationary or I press the clutch to stop it either cuts out or the revs drop real low and bounce between 1000-1800.Hope that helps Link to post Share on other sites
VR6king 18 Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Sounds like a Vaccum leak! When you turn thr wheel does it also drop idle? Link to post Share on other sites
D11PS 146 Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Yeah it does Link to post Share on other sites
VR6king 18 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Its definetly a vaccum leak somewhere. I suggest grabbing a spray of break cleaner and spray away in the motor to see if you can find it. You should hear difference in idle when you hit where the leak is coming from.
