Attention to the recommended value of idling RPM: PR041
C heck the connection and condition of the idling regulator connector.
R eplace the connector if necessary.
C heck the resistance of the idling regulator.
R eplace the idling regulator if necessary
C heck the in su la t ion and continuity of the connections between:

M end if necessary.
Idling regime
< minimal limit RECOMMENDAT IONS The idling RPM is too low
- Check the enriching adjustment operation.
- Clean the air supply circuit (valve body, idling regulator), which may be clogged.
- Check the engine oil level ( too high ? bubbling).
- Check the engine compressions.
- Check the valves clearances and the distribution setting.
- Check the ignition.
- Check the injectors.
If all checked eleme nts are correct, replace the idling regula tor
Idling regime
> maximal limit RECOMMEND AT IONS The idling RPM is too high
- Check the oil level
- Check the good operations of the atmospheric pressure sensor.
- Check possible leaks at piping connected to the inlet manifold.
- Check the electric valve s with pneumatic control.
- Check the manifold gaskets.
- Check the gaskets of the valve body.
- Check tightening at servo-brake.
- Check the presence of nozzles in the connection hose s of the oil vapors re-aspiration circuit.
- Check the valves clearance and the distribution setting.
If all checked eleme nts are correct, replace the idling regula tor AFTER Restart the conformity checking from the beginning.

C heck if there is petrol in the fuel tank (fuel indicator failure)
C heck if the vehic le is supplied with adequate fuel
C heck tha t supply cir cuit hoses are not broken (espe cially further to a dismounting)

C heck the condition of the fuel tank
C heck that fuel tank aeration is taking place.
C heck the connection and the condition of the idling regulator connector.
Re place the connector if necessary.
C heck the motor of the idling regulator
In order to unblock it, you may slightly hit it.
Disconnect the connection hose between the canister purging valve and the intake manifold.
Cl amp the connection hose in order to stop the air passing.
If there are no more disturbances, the cause is the canister purging valve.
C heck the spark plugs and ignition coil condition
C heck tha t these eleme nts are specific to that vehicle.
C heck that the exhaust route is not clogged and the catalyst is not clogged.
Check, by means of the oil dipstick, that oil level is not too high.
C heck for lack of sealing at servo-brake (noise).
C heck the intake manifold condition
C heck if the valve body is not clogged
C heck the engine compressions.
