I thought the Gt was introduced in 94!There is supposed to be a sensor in the airbox by the way.

Anyway I have a 94 M plate 2.0 GT and I think I have the 3S GE engine.
I have a problem with the idle which is higher than I would like at about 1500 when cold and the car runs rough till about 2000 RPM.

If the car is left to idle it warms up and the temp guage shows the needle at halfway the revs will drop down to around 800 rpm. if I go for a blast down the motorway the temp guage drops right down and the revs come back up to about 1200 RPM. it all gets worse in cold weather and the car takes an age to warm up if the outside temp is less than about 8 degrees


I thought I'd change the thermostat but when I took the bit of metal off where the top hose meets the block there was no stat??? which is a shame because I bought one of EBAY

I thought I had a dodgy sensor but they have all been swapped and tested and supposedly they are OK.

So I'm stuck as well. The car goes well normally i.e. when your on an open road and the revs are above 2000rpm.
