Hi All,

I have a 93 3lt Verada. It has a bad stalling problem.

1. It will start then stall if i don't keep my foot on the accelartor. After it warms up it wil idle but will me temperamental. Changing from D to R upsets it. Also when I come to a stop after braking hard it will stall.

2. The idle surges sometimes too. More so when the AC is on. I can hear what sounds like a relay clicking in the engine bay.

I have found myself having to drive eith two feet to keep it going (dangerous and embarrasing)

I though it maybe a vacuum leak but have not found one. THe idle problem I though maybe the idle speed control motor ?

Any help would be greatly appreicated.

you are correct

The idle problem IS the idle speed control motor ?

it is a stepper motor and should have 3 screws near the throttle body
(dont have a picture )


and the other thing to change is the ecu
behind the passengerside kick pannel wall( a metal box )

get them from a wrecker

genuine is expensive

the TPS should be ok

Thanks for the help, much appreciated. I'm going to try getting a new idle control motor on the weekend.

Do you think its worth changing the ECU as well or should I wait and see if the control motor fixes the problem first.

wait and see try one part at a time :57:

Got the control motor yesterday and installed it this afternoon. Took about ten minutes. It sorted the problem out. The idle is perfect. I don't have to use both feet to drive now. It's like a different car.

It cost $120- (actually has 2 bolt holes) It looks like the design of the part has changed a little from the original.

Anyway, Thanks again

Cheers

control motor cost $120.00

was this a new part or one from a wrecker ?

glad you got it fixed :clap:
