Hi all....
Im a newbie here and looking for help
My cam belt broke and bend valves etc etc . i took it to engineering place to have fixed up cost me about R4500 (rand) got the car back and it idles like a drag racer V8. took it back to gerage who fixed it up. He says it might be an air leak some where. Got the car back yesterday and he says all is fine and hes happy........ well i didnt fetch the car...my wife did...she phoned me and said car is still the same....erratic idle.... i got home last light after work and looked if i could maybe see something....... :shakehead:...nothing....
It idles fine for about 3secs and then its starts hunting......puff puff etc etc.... i checked ht leads, vacuum hoses....:bang: couldnt find any loose or corroded....
where else can i look .... i suspect camtiming still to be out....guy at gerage says no ways...it cant otherwise it wouldnt start or run.... ok i agree. when i drive it drives fine no propblem....power is fine etc....just the idling......
Please i need some help people.....:bang::shrug:
