What causes a car not to idle?
Many mechanics focus on major causes and neglect the minor ones. The air throttle valve is a unit located between the engine and the air cleaner. If this valve is clogged and air does not flow, the engine cannot idle. Many mechanics start by replacing coils, plugs, fuel pump, air cleaner, plug wires or engine sensors.
Why does my rpm wont go up?
Why a car won’t accelerate but RPMs go up The first thing to do is to check for bad spark plugs. If your plug is damaged it might cause your RPMs to run high. Plugs are responsible for the creation of the spark that ignites the fuel in the engine. A more complex cause is if the car’s transmission is slipping.

What does it mean when car won’t go past 2000 rpm?
Won’t go past 2000 rpm. The same thing happened to me. No codes, no lights, just limp it in. Shut the engine off and it would run fine for 3, 4, sometimes 5 miles but would drop rpm to 2000 rpm and into limp mode again.
When does the idle air control valve change?
When the engine is running but the vehicle is not moving, this means the engine is idling. During this time, the number of revolutions per minute (RPM) inside the engine will change. The idle air control valve is responsible for managing the engine idle speed.
What to do if your motor scooter won’t idle?
If you find the intake valve is too loose, twist it by hand in a clockwise direction until you reach the desired clearance level. Once you are happy you can just about slide a .004 feeler gauge behind your intake valve then you can re-tighten the intake valve nut and reassemble the intake valve cover and the rest of your scooter.
