Resistance range of ISV valve

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I am a proud new owner of a 94 VR6. I love it. I upgraded from a 1 litre Citroen AX :D I have been lurking for a while and learning a lot from this forum. My VR stalls occasionally when you clutch in pulling up after a long steady run, a common problem I gather. Apart from that it seems to run perfectly. A couple of small leaks as well, the oil cooler and the thermostat housing I think.

 

I've taken the ISV valve out for a clean and checked its resistance. It's 8.3 ohms, whereas the Bentley I got with the car says it should be 10-20 ohms. Is this a cause for immediate replacement? Are there any other checks I can do on it? Presumably it should open/close at a certain voltage?

 

Thanks

 

Chris
