High revving 16v
I have a 1.8 16v zetec engine and wen i start it up it revs really high and wen i press the accelerator the revs die and it almost cuts out!
Wen i sit in traffic it also idles really high and wen i pull away it almost cuts out.
Would this hav anything to do with the ISCV?
Any help would be much appreciated, thanx

the idle valve can cause this problem.but they do not cause the car to die when you accelerate off the lights. you can clean them out. but sometimes it doesnt make a difference. they are situated under the inlet manifold you can access it from getting under the car. the airflow sensor on the airbox can also cause problems like the car dying when pulling off the lights. if are gona clean both these sensors then use carb cleaner. hope it helps
