fla 9 Posted January 24, 2005 Ok, so its ok to just disconnect the battery for half an hour? Mine was removed for most of the day on saturday, plus it had gone flat anyway. Should I do anything new to the TPS? Kev you're right hter are various codes etc and a procedure to reset it, i think its somewhere here in the forum. I've got a copy at home but am a bit wary of changing any settings, unless anyone has some good tips. Dr Mat? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted January 24, 2005 Just a thought Kev whilst you mention chucking some Slick 50 in jest (er who would really use that on anything apart from v low temp applications anyway?), i have a non-ptfe based lube (which i used to supply some years back) which doesnt clog up even at temperature. Maybe a squirt of that might help? Certainly makes contact surface super smooth and last absolutely ages. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted January 24, 2005 Yeah I armed myself with some carb cleaner and "3-in-1 with PTFE" spray today to do my ISV tonight. Having looked inside the ISV everytime I clean it it's not hard to see why they jam up. There's always loads of scoring marks on the valve. I'm thinking about flattening it off with a dremel or something as it clearly binds when hot. I'll try the PTFE in the meantime though..... Your spray sounds interesting though! Give it a try, it won't hurt.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted January 24, 2005 I wouldn't recommend messing with the adaptation settings now that you've lost them. Just let it re-adapt. That's better than messing it up.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
