Not done any yet man, been working gona see if the plugs are getting fuel could be a smegged up fuel fillter not sure yet

I'm thinking the ICV is dead (idle control valve)

Do a ecu reset (unplug battery for 30 mins) and see if it's any better. Maybe clean it out as well

Yeh will do mate where is the icv located ?
Its weird tho because it was running fine then I pulled up for 5 min with the engien running and it just stalled

Then when I fired her back up it was idleing at like 300 revs then it just cut out and wont start now
