shakey corona Fri, 05 August 2005 08:43 Go to next message
this morning (very cold) i went out to start up my corona and it started up jsut fine but it shaked very very violently it would only stop when i gave it some gas im pretty sure this ISNT due to the fact that the engine was cold because whenever i start it i wait and let it warm up but this is the first time it started shakin really badly does this mean anything? then later on the day it went away dunno why but dont know if it will happen again and if it could be anything major.

if anyone could help me out?? be greatly appreciated
cheers.

what model corona, maybe adjust your idle so it idles higher stops the shakes maybe up to 1000rpm, mine has been idling lower atm and am gonna adjust up a bit tomorrow as when i have the lights and heater on sometimes at traffic lights it'll drop a bit.

Engine shaking violently usually happens when the engine is cold, and can be because the idle is too low (as corolla boy mentions) and/or it is not firing properly until things warm up.
Probably just needs a tune, new plugs leads etc, timing adjusted adn carb/injectors cleaned, as the fuel could be coming out in "gobs" instead of a fine spray.

Also mabey your choke/cold start injector or whatever your engine uses isnt working/ needs a clean

the corona is a st141.i do think my carbie is a bit dirty becasue when i take my foot of the gas in second quickly it will jerk around a lot. and also every morning when i turn it on i will give it gas and will jsut turn off then when u turn it on again it will idle higher till its warm. im pretty sure this is the carbie ive tried to put injector cleaners and shit in but they havent done anything.

cheers for that guys Smile

haha yeh my corona (st190) did some random shit yesterday

I turned the key and before i managed to even fully turn it, it turned on, and then it spluttered and spluttered for a while, and then i tapped the accelerator, and no more problems! have started it about 5 times since yesterday morning and no problems

Must be a corona thing on the 5th august Wink
