    Default Revs / Accel

    hi all,

    My Siggy has had a camblet and water pump fitted on saturday, and since then it seems to want to run all by itself - lol

    it will quite happily go along at 20/30/40 in 3rd, 4th 5th gear without me pressing the gas pedal. It doesnt appear to be over revving. it will run along in 5th/5th at 40 mph in under 1000 rpm. if i press clutch to change gear the revs instantly drop off, no sticking at all. No cruise light on, can turn it on and off whilst in Night Rider mode (well may as well give it a name).

    any ideas.. could something have been flicked, knocked, whacked during the cam belt change that would affect...........

    cheers all

    Rick

    Sounds a tad high i think. Thought it was 650 - 700 rpm.

    Wonder if its idle control valve playing up?

    Need some more expert answers from other members thou.

    Sorry cant be more help.
