My 16v 2L Omega goes through periods of being unable to idle during journeys. Most of the time it'll be stable & fine, then for a few miles, every junction it'll stall. Sticky idle speed valves appear to be a common complaint onVauxhalls - the question is, can they be cleaned up and improved? Replacements seem very expensive!
Not having taken mine off yet, I don't know what to expect in there. Will a coating of WD40 over the internals improve matters? If so, which bit should I attack with the can? It seems to be made up of the cylinder which is presumably the motor, and a right-angle mounting which mounts the motor to the throttle housing.
There also seems to be a fair bit of oil around where the air intake duct attaches to the throttle housing - is this normal, or should I suspect a blocked breather pipe or similar somewhere?
Thanks, Paul
