Anyone in the Epping Forest area with diagnostics...

...fancy helping me out?


The stalling at idle issue has returned on my 172 and before I go replace every part I thought I'd get it hooked up to the diagnostics!


I will travel to you obviously :quiet:

I *think* it's the lamda as it smells quite rich on idle too, just curious as I wouldn't have expected it would throw it out enough to make it stall! its perfectly fine when driving.


cheers

On mine it was the ICV (Idle Control Valve) that caused stalling, cost about £50 to replace and been fine since. ICV wasn't straightforward to replace though - gave me a 5000 rpm tickover at first ( a bit of poking round the inside of it with a screwdriver eventually lead to normal tickover etc).

Cheers
