   HELP ! right, I have a saxo vtr, with a vts conversion.. my problem is, the idle is fine, but when I approach a set of lighys and change down through the gears, it sometimes wants to stall, and actually sometimes does I has a brand new icv fitted today, as the Idle was rough, that was sorted with the new icv, but now this is happening any suggestions ??

   Mine did this, except it actually did stall leaving me with crap brakes and heavy steering untill i started it again, not good whilst driving! I also fitted a new icv but in the end i just took the the throttle body off, stripped it down and cleaned everything with carb cleaner, the butterfly seemed to be a bit rough when it was returning. Gave that a bit of wd40 after a clean and its literally been perfect since, that was 6 months ago, worth a try!

   Could be worth replacing the green temperature sensor, I had this problem and that change resolved it

   Funny you should say that, iv literally just noticed that the green plug seemed a little "weathered".. fact question, but what is the cost of that ??
