Twingo gt has a problem when it rains

[nemoxx]

My twingo gt has a problem every time it rains. The injection problem light goes on and loses power. It also continuously switches from gas to gpl. After a few days back ok. The car has 170,000 km.

Ciao !

Leaky scuttle maybe ?

I just disassembled and cleaned completly the throttle body but the problem did not disappear. So it could be the scuttle. But where does the water go if it lost or it is broken ?

Picture from an old thread, engine bay of 1.6, scuttle most likely leaking in the same place tho

Hope this helps

thank you ! how to eliminate the skuttle problem ? I'm checking that cables and coils have not been damaged by water.

Simo

Remove the panel to a point where you can see the joint. Run a bead of water resistant silicone along the joint. Spray with water after its dry to check it no longer leaks anywhere.

It rained and I saw that the problem was just that ! I'm going to fix it in the meantime I expect the coils to arrive. Thanks !
