Hi All

We have a c3 in the workshop... when starting from cold wont take revs above 2000rpm. No mil on but fault code p1197 stored.

Good fuel pressure at rail and starts no problem cold or hot. once warmed up drives fine and pulls clean through the rev range.

im a bit stuck on this one cheers

Gary
