   Engine was put in today.
   
   Start up n just dies. Like it carnt hold the idle
   
   If I hold accelerator when starting will start n run fine at 2k plus
   
   Anything under n it misfires
   
   As soon as u take foot off accelerator it will die. It carnt hold any revs. But is fine over idle
   
   Checked timing fine
   
   Coilpack changed. Spark plug checked.
   
   I havent got a icv or map to try. So what you thinking?
   
   Would it be a airleak or icv??
   
   Cheers 16v jp4

   I have the exact problem dude! i gave the icv and throttle a good blast with carb cleaner and it will now idle but is up and down abit at times and it will now randomly bounce up and down between 1k and 2k.
