1.4 Sport engine problem? Please help


Recommended Posts

The lupo's battery had gone flat after being sat still for a few weeks, so today we planned on jumping it and giving it a good run. Jump was successfull, car started up and we were set ready to go, I go round to see the dash cluster, to find epc light and engine check light still on, as the gf to tap the throttle. All we got was wavering revs. It idles, but will not drive/accelerate. Left it to idle for a while but nothing changed.

any ideas?

Best case senario, throttle body issue?

worst case...fried ecu?

Thanks for any help

Hmm, sounds odd but I'd clear the system again by disconnecting the battery for 15 mins, then charge the battery independtly if possible.

If not, hopefully it's still got enough juice in it and try firing her up again
