G16b symptoms. (20 questions, so sorry )
the good bad and ugly?
cold idle speed too high (yes) is the TPS idle switch closed, and at 0v and not 5v, if 5v that means the TPS lost calibration
hot idle at 800 RPM (+-50) yes/no
if no, idle controls failing (long story here)
if yes 800, does hot idle hold at 800, as you turn on Head lamps, step on brake, turn on heater blower to high , defrost glass ON.
or shift to drive (a/t)???? if yes, idle regulation works. if not , not. (ask )
does engine misfire , cold ,warm or hot.
does engine hesitate driving, or bog, or bog then catch up.
does engine not have full power up hills
does engine shake, at idle, can you hear misfiring back firing or muffler explosions, or odd exhaust notes?
does engine make funny sounds.
Is engine still fitted with an EGR, is it closed at idle, at all times idle?
Does engine have a CAT. or is missing?
I cat dead? gutted or when hot , is the input same temp as output end? if yes, its dead cat and all dead cat cars stink first started or full time all the time, just less hot.
Are you running spark gaps at .7mm? (0.028") not at NGK factory .045" 1.2mm (it's the factory default, ) or any brand is like this.. and wrong.
cam belt not over 60k miles? 100km
crank pulley 17mm bolt at 94ft/lbs per TSB?
Got Bosch mag wires in the car or the NGK blue mag wires. mag wires, make any vitara a tiger, the stock spark is weak, so running MAG is SMART.
Never use carbon wire or silicon wire, ever. on these old cars. IMO
is static spark timing as correct spec, value, 8Degrees BTDC or per you cars spec, 5-8 are most. with the TIMING FREEZE jumper in place hot engine 800 rpm, is it? if set way advanced, the idle controls can fail.
ours runs 5deg, some are more. tad more.

and fails if the tps idle switch is not 0vdc.
have a scan tool?
is the CEL lamp no key, then out running?
Do you have OBD2 port above right knee, 16pin D-shell female? called OBD2 DLC port.? seen outside USA 1998 to 2001?
do you get say 8.4-liters per 100k economy on long drive. at moderate speeds.?
if engine misfires hot, does it stop with the 02 sensor (front) unplugged.?
is the maf at 1.0–1.6 volts key
then at idle hot.1.7–2.0 volts
then gun throttle hard and can hit 3v?
is hot ECT at 300 ohms, ?
at 60c, coolant is ohms at 580ohms, btw there are many wrong ECTs that fit the car but are dead wrong, check the ECT ohms with my table
to get the correct ECT takes a VIN code check.
our runs like this.

we also saw this 2 other ways
using the tech1 scan tool and others , and is set for European cars, the here it fails the ECT
but is because this scan tool has wrong plug-in for usa cars, that use a different ect. here.
there are 2 or 3 ECT used in Europe. but just 1 here. (16valves)
and one more tool we saw it repeat this problem.s
