2wd cossie problems...
Hi Folks, just gotten my first cosworth after years of rst's etc... having a few issues with it hopefully someone will be able to shed a bit of light on them...
1st up, car idles the whole time at 2k.... however if i unplug the icv then it will idle as normal? NOW SORTED
2nd, Temp guage does not work atall... any idea where where the sender is to that? head/radiator? NOW SORTED
cheeRS
also just found the centre bush in my prop is shafted, any idea where these can be sourced from? will i need a complete bearing/rubber bush?

If you've just got it, I would recommend replacing the CTS or coolant temperature sender, NOT to be confused with the gauge sender, which as said on 2wd is at front of head near the shiny silver pipe that goes behind the ex manifold to the rear, it has a single wire to it.
The CTS is at the rear of the head other side under the inlet manifold, if this is saying it is too cold it will raise the idle for a cold engine.

The iscv doesn't need cleaning as it works, this is shown by the fact that it is causing the high revs when connected, but idles ok when disconnected, the clue is finding out what is telling the valve to raise the speed.
