now gents, right to start off today i have cleaned my anti shudder valve, egr and manifold, happy days or so i thought, then my bestest buddy turned up (mechanic by trade)
and started to laugh at me, "why are you cleaning the anti shudder" ? so i tell him why and this should sort my idle wobble out and what ave you, he then told me it'll be fubar'd coz oil gets in the leccy box and stops them from working, i checked the seal around it all and the was no oil leaking from the seal on the box lid, so i opened it and was met with OIL ???
so his findings are this try looking in the leccy box that's on the valve first without cleaning to save time, if ok clean the valve and replace if like me its full of oil you will need a new one, i've had to clean all of mine as i do'nt have a replacement yet so....
now then, if you have had the cleaning done and your still getting the idle wobble and what ave you, check the leccy side of things out on the valve, me mate says it'll be lubed up and will want changing for new.
hope this sorts a few people out and save £££'s and time, as i have been reading all the threads on cleaning and stripping anti shudder, egr, manifold over the last few day's and i see people saying they have cleaned and changed parts and still have the problem, could this be the problem ???
