Sorry I was thinking Z16XE here, I always get mixed up between the Astra G engine and the Corsa B one. | |

Steve, the throttle body isn't at the back of the engine. | |

ICV won't put the EM light on. ICV is on the throttle body, down the passenger side of the engine. | |

My money will be on the idle valve. As above, try cleaning it out first as they build up with crap. I did this, was OK for a week then I had to change it for a new one. | |

Idle jets are only found in cars fitted with carbs, they are not on fuel injected engines. | |

on mine it was the throtle positioning sensor wire , if you pull it to one side and tie rap it, that worked with mine | |

my old corsa did this once. Turned out to be the HT leads needed replacing. That was a non ectoec engine though | |

OK im in need of some help all of a sudden over the last week my corsa 1.6 ecotec engine has been sometimes struggling to start after being started for awhile, its revs on its own when idle up to 3k sometimes and down to 0.5 & randomly stalling when pulling up at traffic lights n stopping i spoke to a guy at work n he reckons its the idle jets n they need to be cleaned! i cant find out how to do this or what they are does this sound right? :boggle: |
