as per title really - don't like the idle - doesn't exactly sound 'sweet'. Rev's fluctuate - more like a hiccough really, but sometimes seems slow to drop from 2000rpm, also occassionally feel the car 'hunting' when you back off the 'loud' pedal - though this seems to have improved with me using the car more. Also sometimes it will start immediately and ranges up to what seems like a long time (worse with a new passenger in car!), maybe up to 4 seconds. background on car: battery very recently changed - it is proper spec bosch battery. starter motor turns the engine at what sounds like a decent speed plugs changed plug leads changed to splitfire new coil lead new dizzy cap and rotor arm earth leads from battery to chassis removed and cleaned, to starter motor, and from chassis to engine battery charges nicely (13.5volts) according to volt gauge on car new bosch idle control valve vacuum tubing has been replaced new fuel filter and fuel lines
would it be worth removing the injectors and getting them tested and cleaned? DME? crank angle sensors (the 2 at the top of the clutch housing)?
any thoughts and suggestions would be greatly appreciated cheers Mark
