How can you hold a steady rev? Put a brick on the accelerator pedal or something? And as for when the engine is switched off, the throttle body wont open will it?but this sorted it It is said to spray when your car is off, but do it whilst on, holding the revs steady at first. then spray it down a few times with the car off too
I used a piece of piping I found and wedged it between the drivers seat and the pedal.Mint wrote:How can you hold a steady rev? Put a brick on the accelerator pedal or something? And as for when the engine is switched off, the throttle body wont open will it?
The throttle body butterfly thing will definately open with the engine off. Its just operated by a wire basically, so when you press the accelerator pedal it pulls the wire which opens the butterfly thing. Very technical stuff!
