a dremel wirebrush wheel does a far thorough job cleaning the oxide off dizzy cap points down to shiny bare metal for the best spark.

no need to fork out ££ for dizzy cap & rotors if their clearances are still within spec and a simple cheap wirebrush will refresh em.


the Idle Air Control Valve on a prefacelift is the big grey round solenoid at the front of the throttle body



btw does your TB have this green spring fast idle waxstat thing at the back?



if so, follow this guide to remove it cos it causes lotsa issues when it's most likely seized (including too low rpm cold starts, high rpm warm idle).

the temp sensor is sooo easy to remove. just drain the coolant out, deep 6 sided socket & extension on the sensor and unscrew
