Engine Problems

Recommended Posts

Hi lads hope you all had a good xmas and new year.

 

ive got a k reg 2.0 16 v and im having problems with the engine cutting out on me.

 

The car starts fine everytime n runs gr8 for the first 3 minutes or so but after this time the engine seems to stall n keeps loosing power. i was told that it could be a problem with my idle control valve but i replaced this today and the problem still persists. ive checked all the pipe work n everything seems fine .

 

Please Help any suggestions will be greatly appretiated.

 

Thanx

It should be running in average settings for temperature etc. and ignoring sensor inputs including the Lambda if you do this.

From one other 2L 16v I've seen with these symptoms I believe it was a dodgy lambda that was the problem.
