....has a strange problem. It keeps on running fast for some reason :confused: :confused: .
Every now and again it will rev to around 1500-2000rpm for no apparent reason. I have cleaned the throttle body, checked the MAF (appears ok) and checked and cleaned all engine sensor connections. Funny thing is that when it's running fast if you release the clutch while in gear with you're foot on the brake to reduce the rpm. What ever rpm you reach it will stay at when you release the clutch i.e normal idle speed.
I have also removed the engine temp sensor and checked it with an ohm meter as I warmed and cooled it indoors. The resistance seemed to alter as it should.
I have also tried resseting the ECU and this also made no real diffrence.I am now miffed. Like I said it's not all the time although it's doing it now and driving me mad.
BTW hi to you all I am new and would love some help.
Cheers...
