After a few laps of very furious track driving I came in and turned off the engine. 5 minutes later I started it up again. The car was started idling at 3k rpm. I blipped the throttle and it dropped to about 1500 but went up and down between 1200 and 2500 rpm in a smooth rythem Like I was tipping the throttle every half second. It wouldn't stop doing it so I drove it for a while and it eventually calmed down. Anyone got any Ideas?

I'm a complete novice willy. Where or what is the stepper motor? Is it anything to do with the inlet manifold? I was gonna strip it all out and give it a good clean up. |

Look for leaks in the pipe from the stepper motor to the inlet pipe. ________________________________________ Ex SC-6Now in a Megane R26 |
