Could an accidental ingestion of coolant into the motor effect idle?
Could an accidental ingestion of coolant into the motor effect idle?
Last month while installing injectors I accidently crossed a coolant and vac hose which introduced coollant into the motor. Eversince I hve had a weird idle problem, at start up the car wont hold idle and it takes maybe 3 starts to get the car to hold idle. After that the car runs normally and holds idle fine. Everyone once and a while it will die at a light then start again but have a lumpy idle.
