hi guys, i have had a good look on this forum but cant seem to find what im looking for......

when i start my car from cold she ticks over fine , then as she gets warmer the revs seems to rise , after 5 miles of driving the revs are sitting at over 3000 . its annoying the whole street and me also. if i turn the car off at this piont it wont start again for at least an hour , sometimes it will start right away sometimes it wont .

it seems to get worse when the engines warmer . and sometimes the btrake pedal goes rock solid. always when the revs are high .

please help me people , i dont know what to do, i can only say that i ''think'' it might be a split pipe somewhere ???

mucho thanky in advance. PS . WOULD A DEAD BATTERY MAKE IT DO THIS ??

this is fook all to do with your problem mate but that is a stunning van.

Might be something wrong with your vacuum (brake master cilinder??), because you say the brake pedal is getting rock hard.

I would check all the vacuum lines first if 1 of them is torn or damaged in another way.

By the way that is a great van you own

Cheers.

well the cars now off the road i will report what it was when its fixed , i cant drive it n`more

edit edit:: ive been messing about with all the plugs and so on, i got a new battery too, seems to be ''ok'' for the time being , i let her run until the fans came on , then she started ok and the revs are fine and tickovers back to normal, even when hot and after a blast

lets wait and see ..........

sounds like the vacumn pipe that goes from the brake servo to your inlet manifold. might be split or loose.

Combi_Chris

its not that , i checked it , i think it could be servo master cylinder related , but then having said that when i started her up this morn as soon as i tiokk off the cold start plug it was fine, plug it back in and went loopy again, ill sort it eventually......

just get it set up dude cos then you will find out what the score is. Im just off the M25 J28 A127 which is only two junctions away, i know you have taken it elsewhere now but if you get stuck let me know.
