when my cars ticking over it sounds like a bag of spanners i've checked the spark plugs and cylinder 1-3 are fine but cylinder 4 is covered in carbon i've changed the ignition lead and its made no difference also if you've been driving the car for a bit wen you pull up to a junction and or stop so the cars ticking over the needle on the rev counter is all over the place it take it a second or so to find the idle speed and then in kind of bounces around where the idle speed should be any ideas anyone? Cheers Petey |

Next thing is a compression check chap, Halfords sell one by Gunson, you should be looking for a reading of 13-15 psi, after that, it'd be worth getting some 'top end treatment' by Forte, they also do a good injector cleaner too, Halfords don't sell this stuff, but its way better that anything they do. Try a smaller local spares shop, they usually have it. You might want to try and re-set the idle speed too, there's a guide on that somewhere
