   After reading the VTS Cutsout title. of another thread it reminded me of my car..
   My 1.1 saxo, when cold or when hasnt been run for a while will drop below the 1k revs, and even stalls when i take my foot off the accelerator sometimes..
   
   What could be typical reasons for this?
   When it's been running for a little while the revs will go back to 1k and act like normal.

   by the way, it's not all of the time. it's just when it's not run for say all night. or it's colder outside and hasnt been run for a while etc.

   To be honest, no-one on here can tell you for definate. You need to check your sensors firstly and then get it on a diagnostics machine. It could be a number of things from coil pack to a faulty sensor.
