PeeWee Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Have you checked the usual suspects such as leads & plugs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escort4x4 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 sounds to me like a vacuum problem, but like said check usual suspects, Is it fine when cold, if it happens when its hot then id point to a vacuum hose collapsing when warm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
