last night coming up to roundabouts it stalled on me twice???????

Any ideas chaps?

this is a MY97 Classic Uk 2000

 

Are there any symptoms? i.e. does it struggle around 5-600 rpm before dying?

if so, sounds like it might be idle control valve. Have you also checked for faults on the ECU with the black connectors under the steering wheel?

 

how do i check faults??

Doesnt seem to struggle at all...

ooo a idle control valve, happend on my vectra... y didnt i think of that! duh!!

was gettin some "pinkin" at like 4k but vacum pipe wasnt sitting right with dump valve

 

Hi, loads of info on here about checking codes...

In short,

1 ignition off
2 Under steering wheel cowling connect the 2 black connectors, should be two green ones there too. They should be just above the pedals and they might be clipped up.
3) turn on ignition without starting up
4) the check engine light will show codes if there are any, 1 long flash = 10 1 short = 1, if no faults then it will just flash in half second intervals

 

Will have a search later, So if it flashes every half second no faults?

then how do i find what the fault is?
