Hey guys, need some advise. I'm not much of a car guy but like to have a go at fixing :roll: things myself and no when something is wrong. I have a EL Futura Wagon that has a eratic and rough idle when engine is warm. Can anyone tell me some cheap ways to try and resolve myself before taking it to a mechanic? I have tried Wynnes addatives in the past and really couldn't tell the difference. Any other brand or things I could do?

Hiya,

Firstly, welcome to the forums :) Provide us more information - is your wagon on LPG for starters ?

Cheers,
Steve

maybe ISC valve dirty, plugs need changing,maybe even fuel injectors or fuel. Number of reasons :?:

Thanks for your replys guys will give em a go, how easy is it to take ISC off and clean?

dcstraight ,is straight fuel no LPG, fully standard in everyway, costs to much money to do up when I know in 12 months time I'm gonna want a BA XR6 Turbo when prices drop a bit.
