My GTV6 won't idle!

Does anyone of you have a clue why my GTV6-83 won't idle? I started at first try after the winter but it won't idle, not even when it becomes warm. I've changed the cold start injector, but it didn't do any good.

Hello Jonas,

In order to understand your engine trouble, can you please tell if your engine
starts and stop running afterwards (after 1 second or so) or does it simply refuse to start ?

It starts right away without problems and runs as long as I press the gas pedal. If I don't give it gas, it dies in a second. It simply won't idle. I drove it for app 3 kilometres yesterday to get the engine warm, but it didn't change anything.

Regards,

Jonas

Hi folks!

The problem was man-made by me. 2 hoses to the plenum were attached wrong, and when corrected, the engine idled like never before...
