aziz360 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Hi I have a lupo 1.4s 2001. I cleaned the throttle body because it was filthy. Now wen I start car epc light is on and i put foot on accelerator it will rev but then after a few minutes the accelerator pedal stops working. Put foot down on accelerator and nothing happens. Please can anyone help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon5 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Is it connected back up properly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 You'd be best deleting the other threads (or the contents atleast) otherwise you're gonna have replies all over the place. Or pm silver an ask for them to be merged.Did you do the egr too? Not much to take off to do the TB so I'd be surprised if you put it back on wrong.

Defcon5 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Did you take it off or do it in situ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aziz360 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Hi I took the throttle body off. And cleaned it. I'm sure I put it back on properly the black cover facing towards the engine. I didn't clean the egr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 ah right didn't realise you'd taken it right off. chances are it'll be something with the refitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aziz360 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 There isn't really a lot just the 4 bolts that hold the throttle body on and the connector to it. Going to try throttle body alignment on it tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aziz360 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Just to make sure I put it on with the black cover facing towards the engine can anyone confirm that is correct. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
