    willys not happy...

    I had an issue with cold idle a while back but its come back even worse now, will stall all the time when dipping clutch when cold. after that goes away now though it kangaroos like a good un when hot!!!

    slowing down for traffic take foot off all pedals and the car naturally slows down as normal but then has a fit, speeds up slows down again again etc...

    Whats that all about then??!

    Lamda's fine and its had a new cts recently which looked to have cured it at first..

    Notice the speedo wobble is very bad these days upto 40 odd mph guess it wouldn't hurt swapping this??

    one thing i had to sort on mine was a loose connection of the plug that fits to the top of the ISCV.

    Might be worth checking that aswell when your cleaning it out

    loose connection to the CTS mate, check the connector not the sensor, clip may be worn or cracked etc, connectors corroded inside the plug or similar, mine does the same, when i leave it to idle revs drop very very low, then either it cuts out or recovers and revs drop etc etc in cyclic fashion, but if i wiggle cts connector it stops it. can also just wiggle the connector gently if idle is normal when cold and see if it effects the idle speed
