Peugeot 206 problem! - Greek Goddess

Hi all

I have a Pug 2056 and when I drive it after a while the engine revs up of its own accord. Sometimes when I stop at traffic lights the engine just cuts out.
Is this an accelerator or timing problem?
Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks

Bit more information needed first

Need year of car to tell if its multiplexed.

Need engine size & type? petrol / diesel? Hopefully not the ET3 petrol lump.

Nasty AL4 autobox or normal manual box

Its a TU3 lump under your bonnet.

First thing to check is the coil pack, if its made by SAGEM sling it towards the nearest skip & fit one of the later modified non Sagem coil packs & a new set of Peugeot spark plugs before your ecu gets damaged by electrical spikes.

Cleaning out the stepper motor / idle control valve & its air bypass hole will work wonders too, 2 x torx 20 screws & one electrical connector to unplug, dont lose the o ring, a cotton bud is ideal for poking up the hole the plunger slides in.
