According to a mechanic, I need a new air flow meter.
The car accelerates erratically at low revs, and when accelerating uphill (under load) the car feels that it is holding back.
I read on another group that increasing the idle speed, via the air screw, to ca. 1200 rpm, helps to compensate for this problem (normal idling speed is ca. 1000rpm).
Do you think there is any truth in the rumour?
Thanks
Sp.
Ps. could I adjust the air flow meter?
Hi there I have no idea myself but i think my 106 quicksilver is doing a similar thing, do the revs seem to go up quickly when accelrating and then falling back again?!
No,
I think my car is misfiring, but only on occassions, at other times it drives well.
I am having it tested.
