Hi guys,
was wondering if any of you could help, my LCR is playing up at the moment.
basically, over the last few days ive been getting this intermittent problem when i start the engine. as soon as it fires up, the rev needle shoots to 2k and just stays there, and then very slowly comes down to 1k. then, when i tap the accelerator it goes through the revs really lumpy, almost like the cars misfiring or something.
At first i thought it might be the automatic choke or something ?? but this is happening even after ive been on a long drive. If i stop anywhere and switch off. 9 times out of 10 when i start her up again, the revs shoot up to 2k and the same thing happens again? its like sum1s got their foot on the pedal and is holding it 2k then slowly letting off ??
Then, my wife broke down today, the car wouldnt start after ignition ? but started again soon after? the car should have had its 70k service. it was last done at 59k and is now just past 72k. its booked in tomorrow.
Cna anyone shed some light on this ??? thanks
