Hey guys, had a little search but this is sort of 2 problems combined really.

Basically in the morning or when the cars been left for a while, it will start up but instantly die, 3-4 times until you keep getting it revved and warmed up.

The second problem is that occasionally the car will just rev up and down randomly sometimes, and even occasionally constantly low rev when idle.

Now ive bee told, idle control valve, or automatic choke.

Im a domnos pizze delivery guy, so this gets annoying, but its fine at work once its been running. :A:

Any ideas on what it could be?

Cheers

Try taking the idle control valve out clean it up & make sure it`s seated correctly.

Like Normal man, after a bit of driving, just when its left for a while gets bit hard.

Oh yeah and all the revving problems have stopped now anyway.
