Hi everyone,
I'm battling wity this car following dropping a new engine in..
When I first dropped the engine in the car was idling, albeit very very rough, fluctuating up and down and occasionally stalling. Also worth noting when I fired it up a ton of smoke came out the exhaust, like a really crappy lawnmower.
So I took it for a test drive, seemed that as the car got warm it just wouldn't idle, period.
Since then the car won't idle at all, warm or cold air con off and on.
After the first drive I pulled the Egr out, cleaned and scrubbed it. Made absolutely no difference.
Before the engine replacement (previous engine shot a piston through the block) the car ran and idled perfectly. I've only replaced the bare block - starter, alternator, intake manifold etc are all from the old engine.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking coils are the next place to look, and perhaps iac however given these were fine before i might be chasing dead ends...
Cheers
