whats a mivec normal idle speed

[Danny Kierans]

when cold =

when hot=

i have a small prob i need to sort but need to know this.

[escu_calin]

there is no difference in idle speeds from mivec to non mivec 6cil 24v
considering the ac is turned off the idle speed warm is 600-750 rpm (mine is steady at the half of the first RPM division which marks 1000rpm)
and cold it should stabilize after 5 seconds to 1000 rpm without ac on.

but to reach this point i had to replace stepper which was faulty and to set correctly the position sensor so it stays off when acceleration pedal not pressed (the TPS has a position sensor of the pedal(on/off) and a linear potentiometer) see the workshop manual 1 for instruction on how to set the TPS.

thanks. my problem is if the car go's under 1000rpm engine light comes on and car gos into limp mode and will not rev over 5000 rpm when driven.

reset ECU
then...
do the deed until it blinks.
See the code.

it might be ignition failure, crank angle, etc... all of which is solvable (engine noise might give clues also)

thanks for the replys.

i have seen that but im was looking for the setting to fit a new one,thats a way of checking its faulty,the way it as adjustment on the 2 scerws to sitting at an angle and also the miture scerw because i move and wanted to know factory setting on it.i have tried sarch and read workshop man no.1, but im missing it

Here you go Danny:

Heres a tip - stick sewing pins through the wires in question and clamp the multimeter probes onto each one, this makes it much easier to get the TPS within tolerance in that you can adjust on the fly.

thanks cj,u hit the nail on the head.ill be glad to get this sorted. all rear bushings almost done will be driven again soon.

[Danny Kierans]

right i have followed to check for the tps. and checked term 1 and 4. i'v got 5.18. which is in the tolerance.so that means the tps sensor is good right.? so what is going on.what is the right wat to set it up..check trottle cable tenstion and then back to it. how do u set up the tps and the idle right..please. its the last thing then im sorted.
