Title: 16v KR engine high revs when starting warm
Post by: glen1981 on June 09, 2024, 02:08:15 PM
Hi all

Hoping for some help from someone who has experienced this before  :)  My 16v starts ok from cold but once I restart it (even if not that warm) the revs immediately jump up to around 3000 and don't come back down. It can be driven normally, though the idle still won't drop when I come to a halt. I can't find anything quite like this on the forum after a search, so putting it out there.

Thanks in advance!
