Hi guys
I have mentioned this before but its getting worse now as the cold weather has come upon us and I have just fitted a new engine so i don't want to damage it!
On a completely cold start the car will rev up to and sometime beyond 3k for about 5 seconds before settling down to its normal 1200 rpm cold idle. Surly this isnt normal? Its certainly unnecessary!
Im stuck on what to do, i almost feel like holding the clutch on in gear until it settles to keep the revs down.
The car idles perfect at all other times even when cold. I cant remember if it has always done this but it has been at least a year and gets worse in the winter months. In the summer it will only go up to 2-2.5k
Any help will be much appreciated
Chris
