Idling and starting problems

Post by Digital_Import »

On cold starts the engine tends to turn off but after a while of reving and warming up it goes fine, also when cold and driving the car it doesnt like to idle smoothly it kinda bounces the needle when sitting still, im guessing this is a problem with the stepper motor, where can i go to get it reaplaced? any ideas would help
Thanx :)

A friend just bought one from there - delivery was pretty quick and they are pretty cheap. I dont know if he has put it in yet.
