Low idle and cutting out
 
Just changed my dump valve, took car for a run, sounds sweet but when stopping the car the tick over is very poor and then the car cuts out.
Any ideas?

Is it a adjustable one? If it is, the setting my be too soft. Took me many miles to get mine just right. ;)

You could give up and stick old one back on. :doh:
Alternativly i would try the other two supplied springs see how you get on. :doubleup:

I put the old one back on last night - needed the car for work today,
but I will try the other 2 springs and see what happens.
Not adjustable.

Cheers
