Jadie 10 Posted August 24, 2012 HELP!! hi guys im new here literally just signed up as recommended by mad-dog! Sorry to drop right in the deep end but ive got a problem that im hoping one of you can help me out with.. my rado has had idleing problems since day one, it was seriously under ideling to the point it would cut out i had a new idle control valve and it seemed to sort the problem to a point although still hunting slightly. its now over reving at times, for instance when i start her up she will sit between 3 and 3.5 revs, sometime if i carry on driving it will go back down normally but tonight it didnt. dont want to cause more problems by driving it so want to get it sorted asap, anyone know what it could be?!
