  • Running a bit rich and unstable rpm at idle

    Having some difficulties with my 2.0Efi engine. It’s running somewhat on the rich side (0.85 - 0.9) and at idle the rpm is unstable, ranging from 900 to 1100rpm. any ideas what’s causing that ? Thanks, Chris

        It seems just to have 'happened' but I get the Co% right and give it a tune up to see if that solves it.
