Is it my maf and/or my throttle Body Sensor?

Postby Lets Drift » Sat Mar 06, 2010 8:38 pm

I've noticed two things on my zed since the snow

A) When my zed is nearly warm it hunts the rev's go down to the normal 750rpm then you hear a slight rev as the engine blips back up to about 1,200rpm and drops back down to 750

It does this for about 60sec's before settling at the correct 750rpm. It only does this if I've gone for a run then parked up for about 30 mins then go back to it. It's as if the car's not sure if's cooled down or not from the previous run.

Also when not properly warm while siting at idle the car can sometime's shake a wee bit untill it's reached the correct temp.


B) At idle if I just touch very lightly the throttle peddle it almost cuts out then goes as normal
If I hit the throttle peddle a bit more firmer no problems.

So when I'm parking it or moving it in a tiny space that calls for light foot work it can easily stall.

NB: It pulls well no issuse's there.

Solved after further syptoms arrived ie misfiring on cylinder 6 at idle only.

Further testing proved the number 6 fuel injector was cracked and had a very slow pulse unless under pressure ie accerating.

Cleared by replacing faulty fuel injector
