Car judders when idling

Postby Janet Naylor » Sun Oct 02, 2022 09:21

Now that I have the leaks fixed, the car seems to judder at idle. I have checked the rpm setting and it hs been set correctly. Might mention here that in order to fix the leaks the engine had to come out, so I decided to replace as many gaskets as were deemed necessary. The issue is intermittent and a slight press on the accelerator removes the judder. Could anyone suggest anything?

Many thanks, in advance.

I would try a few squirts of carb cleaner into the IAC Valve. The procedure is in the FAQ here. Can't do any harm.
