Engine Hunting

[britishbulldog]

Hi Guys n Gals

New to the forum and just saying Hi so Hi !

Got an 1990 R32 with a little prob if anyone can shed some expertise on it.

Had the car for nearly 6mths without any probs but about 4 weeks ago when pulling up at say traffic lights she seemed to be hunting high and low, myseriously this dissappeared until yesterday and has become a lot worse.

When you 1st turn the engine on she is idling faster than normal then if you grab hold of the throttle control cable on top of engine and give her a rev she then settles down for about 10seconds then suddenly revs up and down just as if i was turning the ignition key off and then back on again.

Tried to get going on the road but she barely moves 10ft with what i would term as bobby horse effect.

Anyone got any ideas of what it could be and does anyone know of anywhere on Brisbanes southside were i can take it to and get a genuine diagnosis with reasonable costs.

Thanx for any help.

Regards

Hi mate, welcome to the forums

Might be a vacuum leak somewhere if its hunting really bad on idle.

Generally blamed on the aircon thermo switch.

Thanks to all replies, found the prob it was the connection below the air filter unit, had come completely out hanging down (Doh)

Thanks Pete for the contact in Brisbane, will keep hold of the number.
