Hi,

My Jimny starts up at about 1600 rpm, but soon settles down even on cold mornings. It might be the O2 sensor (pre or post CAT) which is faulty.

The OBD-II socket is under the dash board near to the steering column. and bonnet release.

OBD reader will tell you if it is the O2 sensor.

Thank you DrRobin,
but you're talking about your Jimny which is from 2011 ..... and I think a little different.

Sounds like the Idle control valve or a vacuum leak.

Yours is OBD1. There is a reader in existence for your engine but there's another way I don't profess to know as I've a twin cam on OBD2.

Thank you kirkynut

I also think of the IAC, but where is the diagnostic socket (monitor coupler) located ?
