Yesterday I spoke to a mechanic who own a 240 that run on the same type of
injection like mine. His car also sometime facing this problem, he told me
is the injectors that cause it, one of the injector was blocked and need
to be change. However, he still yet to fix it.

I still don't really buy that as the main cause but I will perform test on
it when there is chance.

injectors are cheap only
2nd hand one... rm50 for bosch 804s green ones ;)

idling can be caused by cracked hoses... just found another one... the
hose that runs from i/c piping to idle valve... bloody helll... another

hi..
Turbo Lim didn't change anything for cmho car for idling problem, jus
clean some part that might hv some dirt (as I remember). My idling
problem due to leaking hose, which Turbo Lim fixed it for me. It's jus
labour cost, and I forget already (since it's nothing compare to other..
hehe)
