I write a guide.....

then i ****ing have a twatting bastarding idle that wont fix.

thts swearing.

I measured the throttle potentiometer and the
the voltage that should be around 5.78 was 6.80.. the potentiometer has never been fiddlewith... the other 2 values are spot on
next task is to change the throttle body/potentiometer coolant temp sensor..

I have tried 4 iscvs all to no effect.
2 speedo cables no effect

what symptoms does a fooked coolant sensor pose?

Well I changed Lambda and that sorted my surging out, my car now only stalls when its cold if I set off straight away after starting, if I hold the revs for 15 secs or so, let it off, car runs fine and dandy

I have changed Lambda, ISCV, Coolant Temp Sensor, Map sensor so far
