#1: 206 stalling on idle Author: mistuart, Location: HullPosted: Mon Sep 12, 2011 1:14 pm ---- Hi dont know if anyone can help but have X reg 206 petrol which has a problem.
If you start it from hot or cold it wont start until you put your foot on the accelerator then it will start and idle ok.
It will also drive ok once its started with no hesitation or problem.
If you then turn off ignition and try to start it without pressing accelerator pedal it will not start.
Have also noticed rev counter takes a couple of seconds to read after engine has started.
No fault codes are stored.
Things I have tried are have replaced idle valve, cleaned throttle body and checked all visible earths.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance for any help.

As above give plugs and leads a check over and replace if necessary.
Idle control valve jobber could need a clean.
Throttle potentiometer is worth a check if yours is a tu type engine.

i can't see how the plugs can be affected by you applying more throttle to get it started and you have said it runs fine after starting with no hesitation

No petrol 206 has leads
Peugeot done away with HT leads many years ago

Removed jump cables and wouldn't start. Think maybe battery on edge of failing. Getting new battery tomorrow!!
