hey all,

just wondering if someone can help me,

after gunning my ea falcon up a hill it now idles at about 1500rpm and takes about 30-45 secs to drop back to about 800revs

also it keeps running a little bit after i shut it off, it seems like the timing adjusted it self or it's overheating. weird problem

any help Appreciated.

Cheers,
Jack

could be a whole load of things,
oxy sensor, timing, temperature sensors, map sensor....

i installed a tacho last night, not that it would make any difference, just thought i would metion it.

My old EA CFI did this after having it about 3 months. As common as it was, not a single mech could really tell me what it was.

My solution was I sold it to fund another car at the time.

However, I think it came down to either a bad earth (possibly near the steering box I heard) or the ISC.

I played with the ISC a fair bit, adjusting the kickdown point etc, to force it to idle lower, but even after that and reseting the ECU, the ECU overode it.

It's a pain especially with the auto, as it want's to take off when the brakes are on.

Check ISC connector for corrosion, maybe replace it. Think I was quoted $80 odd bucks.. That or the TPS on back of the throttle body, I removed and cleaned the sh!t outa both of these, but it still haunted me.

Sorry can't help anymore..

wat type of gauge was it???

Is it the ISC that is allowing too much air ?
