Scragrat Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 I run a 54 plate Warrior. After startup yesterday I found that it wouldn't tick over properly, the revs dropped off on idle and eventually stalled. Also, since this problem occurred, the air con light on the switch is flickering but not fully illuminated. Someone has suggested that it may be the air-con pump starting to stick and is pulling the engine down. Any advice from the more mechanically educated on here would be much appreciated Cheers Scraggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richie223 Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 check the relays that are bolted to the inner wing near the windscreen,just behind the fuse box assembly,the tend to corrode and cause these symptoms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silpig5 Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 do you use air con ? it is a bit of a myth that air con cost more , but it does need useing all through the year or like you suspect the clutch on the compressor can sieze . try switching aircon on and running , with a squirt of wd in the back of the pully . it was a regular problem with jags and that used to solve it 9times outa 10 adi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scragrat Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Thanks for your replies lads. I tried running with the aircon on today as it hasn't been run since summer but it made no difference. I will try it again after applying WD40 and also check the relays.

Scragrat Posted February 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 All sorted now thanks guys Richie223 was spot on with his diagnosis, connection block to the relays was not corroded but full of water so a blast of GT85 oil and a good clean and she is running like a good one again. Thanks also to everyone else who offered advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
