it could be the coolant temp unit. it senses the engine temp and adjust the throttle occordingly so the engine can easly worm up to operating temp. when i first start my 1990 tracker up, it will idle at around 2,000 rpm until it warms up then it will idle at around 700 rpms.

automatic idle switch.Nah. Supprised that your engine hasn't 'gernaded'! Something's mechanically sticking in WOT (wide open thottle) when you first start up; like the throttle plate/accellerator cable???

Can you help you have over revving on peogoet 106 on initial start up until warm with irratic engine revving on idle?

I have the same problem, and I've been told the most likely reason is the accelerator cable needs replacing, or there is a problem with the automatic choke! Hope this helps. disconnect the battery for a couple of hours - it works!


What happens if you overheat a Kia sportage until the engine shuts down?

How do you know when a guy is revving his motorcycle to impress you or if he is just giving it gas?

You can tell. If he's trying to impress you, he'll be revving it, and if you don't look over and notice he'll keep on revving it until you do look over. if he's just giving it gas, he'll rev it only once or twice.


How do you bleed air out of the coolant system in a 2000 Chevy tracker?

To bleed air out of the coolant system in a 2000 Chevy Tracker, first ensure the engine is cool and remove the radiator cap. Start the engine and let it run until it reaches normal operating temperature, allowing the thermostat to open. As the engine runs, keep an eye on the coolant level in the radiator; add coolant if necessary. Finally, rev the engine slightly and check for any remaining air bubbles; repeat this process until the coolant level stabilizes and no more bubbles are visible.

Where is a camshaft sensor on 2000 Chevy Tracker?

My 2003 Chevy Tracker would not restart when it was hot and finally would stall & not restart until it sat and cooled off for 10 minutes. It would crank but not start. We replaced the camshaft it solved the problem. It was located at the back of the engine, at the top and is held by just one screw.


What happens when a timing chain breaks on a 2002 Chevy Tracker?

When a timing chain breaks on a 2002 Chevy Tracker, it can lead to severe engine damage, as the engine's pistons and valves may collide, causing bent valves or damaged pistons. This can result in a complete engine failure, requiring extensive repairs or an engine replacement. Additionally, the vehicle will likely stop running immediately, and it may not start again until the damage is addressed. Regular maintenance and inspections can help prevent timing chain failure.


High revving of engine 5000 - 6000 rpms until it warms up on a 2000 VW New Beetle?

If your doing it on purpose then DON'T.If the engine is doing it via the computer you need to take it into the shop and have them look at it. There seems to be a bad sensor telling the computer wrong information. Running at a high rpm when the motor is cold and with no load is not good for it.

How do you time a 1995 Geo Tracker 1.6 liter?

To time a 1995 Geo Tracker with a 1.6-liter engine, first ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder one. Then, locate the timing mark on the crankshaft pulley and align it with the timing pointer on the engine. Adjust the distributor until the rotor aligns with the number one cylinder terminal on the distributor cap. Finally, secure the distributor and recheck the timing to ensure proper alignment.
