#1: loose accelerator cable :( Author: Adam2061994, Location: WrexhamPosted: Sun Apr 08, 2012 12:40 pm ---- right past 4 weeks ive noticed my car needs a lot of revs to move form a holt, and especially hills, i put it on a diagnostics because the EML came on and it came up with water collant sensor which i then replaced, the MAP sensor which i then replaced and now a throttle aculator? anybody help me out with the throttle aculator, i noticed my accelerator cable is loose, would this explain my idling issues and needing a lot of effort to pull away, my car is also running rich?

#3: Re: loose accelerator cable :( Author: Adam2061994, Location: WrexhamPosted: Sun Apr 08, 2012 12:59 pm ---- my clutch seems fine as il put my foot on accelerator when im in neutral and hold it on throttle at 2000rpm and it will drop and then shoot back up and my foot is in the same position

#5: Re: loose accelerator cable :( Author: Adam2061994, Location: WrexhamPosted: Sun Apr 08, 2012 6:38 pm ---- it hunts for fuel at idle mate, drops and sometimes cuts out then shoots too like 1500rpm and drops to sometimes low as under 500rpm

#7: Re: loose accelerator cable :( Author: Adam2061994, Location: WrexhamPosted: Mon Apr 09, 2012 3:23 pm ---- its stinking of fuel tho what explains that? it seems to stutter at low revs like hesitates to want to go but then as it picks up then its fine, so just at low revs?
