Right the fiesta turbo seems to have a bit of a dodgy idle, the throttle was jammed open when we got it and it was idling at 1500rpm, now removed the obstruction and its idling at about 500rpm and seems very spluttery, sometimes stalling

i thought maybe iacv? any other suggestions helpful, all vacuum hoses seem secure and no visible leaks

having enough of a nightmare trying to stop sump gasket leaking, just fitted a new one but its still bloody leaking

mite be iscv or map sensor or tps or the cps have fun lol

 

map sensor is new, thats off the cossie

i bloody hate idle problems

 

why dont you clean the iscv with some carb cleaner and see if that helps.

 

My old Escort GTi was reving up all the time, and bouncing up and down, sometimes stalling.
It was cured by cleaning the ISCV

 

ill do that now, back in a bit

 

why dont you just not buy peice of shit cars lol ??

 

the cos map cencor might not work as you cant put cos injectors in cos the ohams i beleve are different

 

There is one mm that can run a cos map sensor. But don't remember if its ofac or ofab.
But the idle problem should be the icv.

 

you could try scanning it as well (do the fiestas have a OBD port?)

 

no obd lol and you can rarely communicate with them anyway! best use brake fluid to clean iscv as carb cleaner dries them out

 

beefy, why dont you shut the fuck up

Sarah

 

jacko the cossie map sensor works fine, mines an ofab same as the cossie

 

shitty iscv for defenate..

oh and to stop your sump gasket leaking.... try NOT to do the bolts up really tight... and go for the rubber gasket with metal spacers either side of the bolt... much better than the cork efforts

 

it might seem to work fine but as i said the cos injectors wont work in em because the electric system is diferent olthough it works the same way so i dont know if the map sensor will work but seen as though you know so much about them have fun

 

the map sensor fits but am pretty sure they are diffrent "bar" rating sensors so when the ecu thinks its seeing a certain amount of pressure it actually isn't its being told one thing and getting another and not knowing it so hey prestos nice molten mess of an engine

 

Theres always one isnt there fair enough if there your best bud etc, but im willing to bet you have never set eyes on this person in your whole life

 

i would


but then i just wouldnt be me would i ???



im sure u have the exact same problem

beef

 

Sounds like ISCV. its worth pulling all the other connectors off and cleaning them with some wd40.

I think you are meant to set the idle to ~600 IIRC with the ISCV unplugged. There is a little grub screw you set the idle speed with on the throttle somewhere.

The solution to the sump problem that we used (after 3 tries) was to rip the engine out

Good luck with it.

JAmes.

 

I bet your completely wrong
both people involved are members of the same rsoc local group and know each other well

have one of these..lol

steve

 

reading the replys would suggest otherwise.

My apologies

 

yep i have thats why i said it

Beefy your comment was neither helpful or relevant to the thread, if i wanted your opinion on my car, i would have asked for it, instead of getting some pathetic unwitty comment from you.

in the future i suggest you keep unwanted comments to yourself and i will do the same

 

the cossie one aint fitted i didnt realise
