i havent a clue do you ? big problem?

[jenko]

hi guys i have a question i have a 1.2 clio campus sport 56 plate im wondering if you guys can help me ... here goes ...

ive been having reving problems the car has been reving on its own when not moving 2k up to 4k also when driving the car revs on its own also sometimes leading to the car stalling and then not starting

the car doesnt seem to want to start after conking out

when the car does conk out i try to start the car again but the it doesnt (maybe on the odd occasion leaving it for a while)

i try and start the car as normal it does turn but it chokes and doesnt fire up so to speak

if i do manage to start it when driving its as if there is no fuel in the car and is jumpyish

any idea what the problem can be

if i think of anythink else i shall chuck it on here asap

sorry for the terrible decription

thanks guys

i have read it could be the key, a sensor on the gear box, no petrol

i have tried both keys and the car does have petrol

don't know if there is an idle stepper motor on this engine?

 

[jenko]

dont have a clue mate

any ideas guys?

Might be a long shot but maybe the MAF needs cleaning, if it's revving on its own maybe it's an ECU issue or one the sensor's connected to it

 

[Dunn]

sounds like crankshaft sensor maybe

 

[mantis946]

Yeah, when mine went it refused to start and rev's went a bit crazy. Mine was down to poor connection, fixed by braking off the plastic and attaching the wires directly with some electricians tape.

Few pic's of the crank sensor there, Located above your gearbox, little hard to see as I think the block coolant pipes run by it.
