toddster900 0 Posted December 6, 2005 My 2.0l 16v often doesnt like starting from cold and more recently from warm too. It splutters and the revs rise and fall. It only lasts for a few seconds or untill you giv it a good rev. I have beem reading up quite a lot and it looks like being one of three things: 1. ISV 2. TPS 3. The 5th injector Any one got any ideas about which is most likely or easiest to rule out. All sugestions welcom. Cheers guys! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monzadave 0 Posted December 6, 2005 make sure that your 5th injector is not always open, as this will cause spluttering as described. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlett 0 Posted December 6, 2005 clean the ISV, it works wonders.... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toddster900 0 Posted December 6, 2005 how can i check that the injector is not always fully open. Is it just a case of takeing it out. Do this with the car running? Total new boy to injection fuel systems!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted December 6, 2005 I'm guessing that having an injector out in the open when the car is running is a bad idea (if fuel is being pumped) ..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toddster900 0 Posted December 6, 2005 But if the fith injector is disconnected will it still be pumping? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
