hot engine, cold or both? hot is 180F+ !
ticks = idle speed, (very old name for idle, but im very old)
low idle speed has many causes. (over 50 in fact)
but has 3 modal causes:
1: ISC valve stuck. (idle speed control valve) clean it?
2: in limphome mode, suzuki cuts idle controls then. suzuki name officiall for this is Failsafe mode, CEL glowing , is it?
the check engine light on? ( ignored?)
3: engine power way to weak even egr valve stuck open.
#3 has vast causes... huge? we do simple tests to avoid guessing all 50.
this is pure physics:
engine weak, or idle controls dead.
do tell if engine has full power up hills. (kinda key that)
do tell if you press throttle its easy to get normal 800 rpm. or more.
cheers !
most vehicles will stay running-- but if u have a bad or weak alternator it wont stay runnin because their is not enough power have battery and alt checked most auto stores offer this service for free
A idle speed motor will not cause your engine to run rough.It might idle high or stall. If your engine is running rough check your spark plugs and wires along with your cap and rotor first.
if growl is faster or slower with speed & changes with speed & turns its a wheel bearing also frt struts may bee weak check other frt end tie rods balls joints c-arm bushing all known to go bad
