hey guy, have just gt myself an ep82 and im having a small isue with its idle speed... basically from cold it will rev around 2 grand! not good for a cold engin, wen i have driven for abit wether im flooring it or just normal driving, the reves drop to around 300-400 rpm after a while the oil light will flicker? plenty of oil in engin plus its regualy changed, nervouse bout adjusting via idle screw as dnt want it to rev to high from cold, any ideas would be much appreciated thankyou.

The high revving when cold is due to something called an automatic choke (older cars used to have a manual handle you pulled out) which is to get the engine up to operating temp quicker. As for your bit about

wen i have driven for abit wether im flooring it or just normal driving
you shouldnt be flooring it until the engine is warmed up and the oil is free flowing

i no this nd i dnt floor it wen cold, hense why i said wen the engin is warm, and that i didnt want it reving high on a cold engin, its just i am a mechanic nd have tried everything to my knowledge including timing, just had no luck, nt familure with theese engins. have recently sorted the oil pressure sensor but still no joy :(

Not a case of being a knob, having owned, repaired and worked on a GT for the past 2 years before getting the Seo I would happily help if you actually typed in some form of english. Maybe thats the reason this has had 133 views and only me trying to help!

get a n.a more reliable lol i was goin to surjest it could be to do with your dissy timming as i have advanced mine and it has made the idle rise but if u have checked it fair enough i noticed with my car and a friends corrolla gti16 they both wen you pull up to traffic lights or rev it revs drop off quite quick dwn to 400 500 then jump back to the idle position not sure what this is to do with!

Alritey lad's sorry this is off the subject but im trying to get a bride seat from my corolla si (ae101) 1995. And i was wondering if the subframes on gt turbo's and glanza's fit the corolla aswell? or even celica? :S Coz the only seat i can get with rails that fit would be a fixed bucket, and i preferably want a recliner.

Cheers alan
