Revs Bouncing When Under Electrical Load

Recommended Posts

hi

 

i have noticed that when i run most of the cars electrics ie: headlights, stereo, wipers, the revs on the car keep bouncing up and down when stationary and idling sometimes it drop enough to make you think it will stall.

 

does anyone have any past experience of this with their car. im guessing its a common issue as most things are on these lovely cars.

 

any feed back or advice would be much appreciated.

 

my car is a 205 1.6 cti xu5 engine.1987 phase 1

 

regards

Hunting often means that it's running a little rich in my experience and high electrical load exacerbates the symptoms.

 

Try turning the mixture screw on the AFM anti-clockwise by one complete turn and see if that improves things.
