slo2 Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 Comeing to a complete stop at a T junction today, braking hard from about 70 the engine completely died!!! Almost a full tank of fuel so no chance of drawing air. Never happened before , any clues ?
bigdavie Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 check for a perished or loose pipe / connection in and around the brake servo pipe /s hth !! btw where is habbieville ?? kilbarchan ??
Gumball Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 is the car not mapped or rough on idle? overfuelling? or as davie said, a pipe ie the return fuel pipe may have come loose, check it before you drive it i could smell optimax last week and then the car died and fuel sprayed all over the place.
drb5 Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 How hot was the car? My guess is your idle control valve needs cleaned out.
bigdavie Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 just out of interest where is the iac valve on the scoob classic turbo???
slo2 Posted April 21, 2006 Author Posted April 21, 2006 Im away to check the feul line. Big davie your right Kilbarchan. Did I get a wave from u in Elderslie tonight, u got a green classic ?
