mc1.fife Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Hey guys. So I just bought the car last week. In my intro post I said about the car having way too much oil in the engine... Well that oil has halved itself in just under a week My idle is sitting around about 500 rpm too, which is way too low for my liking and when disengaging a gear, it's close to stalling but then saves itself. I tried to adjust it via the bolt on the throttle cable but to no avail (I was trying with pliers mind ).Is there an idle screw anywhere?? Is there places that the d16 engines loose oil from commonly? There are other issues however i'd say these were my main worries just now that I would like a wee helping hand with if you guys don't mind Thanks in advance folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmZvr Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 To set the idle follow the procedure in the manual: The idle adjusting screw is on the throttle body: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
