hey not quite sure what exactly is wrong wif my car, its never happen b4. i think it could be a bad batch of petrol. i went to fill up my car with BP petrol today bout half a tank. went for a drive, put my foot down a lil. den wen i got up to the traffic to slow down the revs suddenly drop and it stalled. and it feels like it will stall every time i come to a stop. as i slow down the idols jump up and down and now it idles about 500rpm den jumps around to bout 900rpm (normal). could it be a bad batch of petrol. i did disconnect the battery the other day to rewire my speakers. check fuses didnt notice nefing strange wif the fuses
Yo. Na i don't fink it's a bad batch of petrol. Must be sumfin else wif da engine bro.

Check the ISC! All you need is a screw driver.
Just under the intake pipe, you will see a black connector. Take out the connector, then removing your intake pipe on the throttle body and you would gain a clear access to the screws that your ISC is mouted on your throttle body. If your still not sure, do a search on THIRD GEN magna forum. I just cleaned out my ISC yesterday and now my car works perfectly with no funny idle.
You may find that your ISC (IDLE Speed Controller) is covered in crap. I used a NULON carby cleaner and it worked.
While your at it, you might want to clean the butterfly valve where you removed ur intake pipe. Its another place where crap loves to gather. :doubt:
Hope this helps.
