    Clio 1.2 Help...

    Hi guys Im new here... I have a Clio 1.2 (E7F engine type), year (1993-94) and I have this problem:

    My Clio Idle's always at high RPM's, so the GAS (Idle) is always extremely high !?

    Here's what I did to solve this problem (which didnt help)...

    Replaced : Carburetor (Bosch mono-jetronic). (still same problem)...

    Replaced : Gas (Idle) Regulator (GM brand) (still same prob...)

    so guys, plz help...any suggests
    Ive heard that Clio's with Energy Engines has some sensors (which are they I dont know), so could it be a sensor problem? plz help... or whatever... just help plz.

    Have you tried kicking the accelerator pedal or just blipping it to see if the auto choke is stuck on?
