Revving issue

Recommended Posts

I have noticed in the last month that my car is doing a few strange things.  Firstly the Revs seem to have a little dip at the bottom of the rev range when I put my clutch in to stop the car, secondly the transmission doesn’t feel smooth when I’m  engaging and disengaging the Excelerator (when cruising). I have attached my YouTube Video link so you can see what I mean about the revs.  Thirdly my exhaust has just started blowing and I’m wondering if that would affect the revs?

Sweet. My air filters are probably due for a change. No idea how to do the throttle body clean but I’ll either watch a video or get my garage to do it. Thanks man. 

Throttle body is easy clean, just make sure NOT to touch the butterfly valve when cleaning, get some carb cleaner or use wd40 like i did, 5 minute job.

Unfortunately I believe this problem is to do with the leaking oil gasket. I spoke to someone at Cougar store today and all the symptoms point towards that. I have HR at 71,000 miles which is around the time this problem occurs apparently. I’ve attached a photo of my warm oil pressure. 

 

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
