lumpy idle Empty
PostSubject: lumpy idle   lumpy idle EmptySat Feb 14 2009, 19:24

Hi, ive got a mk2 golf gti 8v digi engine and it has a got lumpy idle atm and not really sure how to get rid of it, you can feel a sort of judder through the car every second or so and you can feel it through the seat quite easily, im pretty sure it aint the timing because the cam belt was just done and ive also put new plugs and leads on it aswell. any ideas?

Thanks

Dan

digipants always idle crappy.

but go on the golfgtiforum.co.uk or whatever it is and there is a really good tuning guide on setting them up. Also check for vacuum leaks etc. My bet is poor setup as it always is on the digipants they always fly and seem loads better after following the guide.
