My Probe has a tough idle after head gasket job done. Had a new aluminium radiator fitted recently as well. Full service done.
Had a problem with the idle control valve years ago. Any suggestions? 1996 2.5v.

You need to check the following
Water level make sure it’s full to the top
Check that all plugs have been reconnected
Check small black pipes at the rear of the IM
Just generally check it over
