hey everyone, i tried starting my commodore, on Monday, it started but would stall if you didn't keep your foot on the accelerator, i think its a problem with the idle control valve, but i'm not sure since iv'e never heard anyone have this issue.
cheers, Juiced.

How long since you have cleaned the MAF?

It’s never been cleaned since I haven’t had it for long

Best clean it and see if things improve. Brake cleaner will work fine.
