Hi,
I recently had a problem which evidently was due to sludge in the throttle housing.
The symptoms were failure to acclerate and failure to pull. An intermittent problem.
I had the problem diagosed at a garage and the mechanic has cleaned the housing and the breather pipes.
I note now that occasionally the car idles at about 2000 rpm. If I blip the throttle it settles down to a lower level.
I can't see any problem with the pipes or cables around the throttle housing.
I was wondering if some wd40 sprayed onto the cables at the throttle housing might help.
This problem is intermittent, and a blip on the throttle always returns the idle speed to lower level.
The car has always idled on the fast side.
Any comments welcome.
Thanks.
A
