Tromen Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hi guys, Need urgent advice. Got a supra 93 NA auto. Tried starting the car up yesterday and the car keeps clonking. If I push the throttle it doesnt cut out. But once i let go of the throttle it cuts out. At first I thought could be the battery then i realised i just changed the battery. Got nearly full petrol as well. Checked it on youtube with the same problem. Is it the Idle control vavle? Could you guys please advice what else could be causing this. Thanks Hossain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 If you have just changed the battery you will have reset the ECU, the engine will run lumpy and not idle properly initially, the ECU will need a few miles to relearn the settings, it should be fine after that.

Tromen Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 the battery was changed in december. it was working fine since then till yesterday. Any other pointer guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 If you only have to crack the throttle open slightly then it's probably a stuck ICV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromen Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 got my mechanic to clean up the throttle body and the valves. but still the same? I think the valve might be blown off or something. Left a wanted post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
