Hey guys, i have had the Reliant now about 2 weeks and have noticed some odd things happening. Just getting some opinions on them
1. It seems to rev really high when it is warm, and is restarted, like stopping at the gas station etc. Is this the symptom of a dirty throttle body?
2. It idles a little rough, like its missing on a cylinder, but is not down on power or missing when taking off from a stop, would this also be a dirty throttle body, or possibly a bad rotor, Hall Effect sensor.
3. On the subject above, I started the car cold or at least after it had been sitting a few hrs in 40 ish degree weather, it started fine, but then going down the road the engine died. It started again after cranking a bit, then ran if i kept the revs up, then we took off again and it died again, started after cranking, then i went back home without another incedent.
Started it this morning and it ran fine. Took the cap and rotor off, they were kinda ugly, cleaned them and looked at the HES, it was a little dirty, clean it, and put it back together and the car ran fine. Do i need to replace the HES, os is cleaning it ok.
Thanks
