which plenum are you using? looks like there's no idle control valve on it, which you need on a ph1 engine/ECU setup.

Does it run if you hold the throttle open a bit? you might get away with adjusting the throttle stop. It wont be spot on though

I am using a phase 2 172 engine that I have converted to phase 1 setup, so I have a phase 2 plenium that has I have converted to take the ctb , so I need an idle control valve anyone got a pic or a part number for one of these or know any other Renault model these are on
 
you need a ph1 plenum as it's the only one with a hole for the valve. Either that, or convert to proper management ;)


Lack of funds for standalone unfortunatly at the mo.

I will get one of these ICV's and just drill and tap the plenium as necessary also looks like my 044 fuel pump is knackered just checked the fuel line to the rail and nothing:( strange it was working ok the other day
