Hi,

not sure whats going on, i can start the car first time and for about 3 seconds goes to 2000rpm and then can't idle by itself and cuts out straight away. i can keep the car going for as long i like by holding 1-2000rpm myself but even after holding it for 2 minutes the moment i let go it cuts out again.

Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you

It’s not a Very complicated engine management system. The learning curve does require some pretty good focus at first. Feel free to ask questions after reading a few times!
