Defcon5 Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Give the throttle body the good news with some carb cleaner, and disconnect the battery for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defcon5 Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 I assume there are no lights up on the dash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sd_xo Posted December 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 No lights on the dash.. Gonna try some more carb cleaner tomorrow as it made the revs less but I still sound like a chav.. What's worse is when a guy in a corsa put his window down and asked for a race :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
