a miss

milc80 · 07-07-2010, 09:40 PM

I have an 88 mk3 and it has a sort of misfire. but for some reason it doesnt feel like a ignition or fuel misfire. it only happens at idle and its not that bad, its weird the engine still jerks alittle but the rpms do not fluctuate. I think it mite feel like an exhaust leak or something like that. My question is if anybody has gone through that w/ there mk3. By the way its turbo if that helps. If anyone can give me any ideas i would appreciate it.

Check for diagnostic error codes (see the FAQ section) and check for oil down around the spark plugs.
