I cannot borrow one, so it seems the easiest, but not the cheapest, is to buy one to test it. Will have another look in between the showers tomorrow. |

I would of course need it back at some point (no rush).. but your more than welcome to "borrow" it to rule out your problems or to such a time that you find a replacement or that i need mine back? Only thing is i cant post it till Friday as i work away from home Monday-Friday.

"there is a wave type effect on the revs, i.e. raises and resumes about every three seconds."
Hi I had similar symptoms a few months ago, I concur that this could be the iac valve..... changed mine for a 2nd hand one.... all works fine now!!! No fluctuating revs on idle Maurice Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk |

I took off the air filter pipe and lodged the butterfly open by a fraction, and the engine started each of the three times that I tried it. I will assume from that that the valve is faulty and will obtain one. Thank you all for your suggestions, I will return with an update. |
