Morning All,

Some advice/direction please..

I'm running very lumpy at idle.. like one pot is misfiring..
Also, when on very low load and no throttle. i.e. 4th gear, 1800rpm, no throttle the car starts to kangaroo.. This dissapears when i put load on and squeeze the throttle and the engine runs fine under load.

My thoughts are:
Air leak on intake
Faulty Air Flow Sensor
Faulty Throttle sensor

All of which i think could lead to poor fuel mix..

Any views on the above/other ideas as to what it could be??

Thanks

Could be any of the above. You can eliminate the MAF by cleaning it & seeing if that helps. I would get it on a Porsche diagnostics to see if the car is recording any error codes, a friendly OPC or specialist should do this FOC if you have a good relationship with them.
