Hi !
I own marea 1.6 elx automatic trans' 1999 .
rpm in neutral (while standing) is about 1000rpm.
should it be that high? if not, how can I reduce it
thank's ,moni
The engine will rev at about 850 + 50 when cold.
It is possible that the ECU temp sensor is not working correctly so that the engine is running rich. Quickest way to test this is to pull a plug and see if it is wet or black or oily.
If not then the best way to find the fault is to get a diagnostic, it save loads of messing about and can save money in the long run.
