Guest Mike8284 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 My 1990 1.6i runs really rough, (like its on 3 cyliders is the best way to describe it), but only at tickover and under low throttle. Under heavy acceleration its absolutely fine. Any ideas? Cheers Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diggy Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 may sound a daft thing to say but have you replaced the plugs? i have a mk4 and it was a simple case of changing plugs for a good make. hope it is a simple thing as a change of plugs or leads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mike8284 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Cheers Diggy had the same thought did it and no joy! Also have tried one of those fuel additive port/injector cleaners no real difference either!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johno1 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 i had this on my cvh it turned out to be a blocked injector but when u booted it it cleared up as there was obviously fuel coming thru i also had same sort of problem on my turbo engine but that was dizzy best way is pull each lead of and see if any dont make a difference it 1 doesnt then check that injector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
