cmalyan 11 Posted April 2, 2016 Hi all, Took my VR6 out this afternoon - started with no issues and driving fine, got to my destination after approx. 10 mins and it cut out when I took my foot off the accelerator. It started again straight away but continued to cut out unless I kept the revs going. I've not had a chance to look at it yet but it's also doing it when cold, could this be pointing towards the ISV? Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted April 3, 2016 Most of us would say in this situation, to check all the vacuum hoses . Rather than inspect them on the car , i would remove them to have a proper look . Check for splits / holes . Also while all the pipes are off give the ISV a good clean . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmalyan 11 Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) Thanks - just had a look this afternoon and it was due to the wiring harness coming out of the MAF, clipped it back in and its idling as it should - result! Back to purring like a kitten! Edited April 3, 2016 by cmalyan Missed info Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted April 3, 2016 Nice one , I should have said the next thing to look at was the electrical side . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
