Anthony 1,003 Posted February 15, 2007 You've not left the bolt that secures the oil filler to the side of the inlet manifold off have you? I know from experience that'll cause a high cold idle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spiky 37 Posted February 15, 2007 the SAD try bypassing it first, i,e, block the ends, see what happens though doing this it wont tick over when cold Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j_turnell 137 3 Cars Posted February 15, 2007 Sounds like quite a large leak, i'd whip the inlet off again and make sure its sealing properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
