Question Revs

hi im just wondering if any other punto owners have had problems with irratic revs? The are all over the place and idling higher than normal. this all started when it overheated ( i cooked it! ) because of a dodgy fan assembly. any ideas??

Sounds like a bust sensor possibly?

But if u've overheated it - could be worse? headgasket?

Re: Revs

ya sounds like the head gasket, check under the oil filler cap to see if there is white stuff there, or if the level of coolant has dropped and the oil has risen. those were the signs i was told to look out for in a gasket fault. it would be good to rule that out at least.
