Hello everyone, Ive posted bout a 3 weeks ago on how to remove a crankshaft pulley on my 96 Kia Sephia and then eventually found a way and finally changed out the water pump,re-installed the timing belt, and put the alternator back on....(all this because the tensioner mount for the alternator broke off the piece of water pump in which it was mounted too!!...Hence the whole swap out) Saved me like 350 bucks! However...........now that I got everything back together, put the battery back on, fill the radiator,put the belts on, etc.etc. .....the car starts but wont stay runing without me manually keeping my foot on the pedal. It runs normally now cept when I remove my foot...the rpm starts dropping and then it just stalls at like somewhere below 1k. I tried to keep it up and above 1k and slowly realease my foot from the pedal hoping it will idle on its own but once my foot leaves that pedal.....the rpm drops below 1k then it dies. Can someone here point me in the right direction?
E.T.
