your sitting in traffic, does it sometimes feel like it running lumpy or is it nice and smooth?
mine was moving better 800 and 1200 rpm

when its cold mine idles at about 1200 & sometimes goes lumpy for a few seconds like its firing on 3 cylinders, but soon clears up!
when its warm its fine!
but there aint nothing wrong with it that I can find, compression test all ok & also no wear on any cam lobes & wiring ok
maybe a slightly dirty injector??

mine has a slight mis-fire or a mumor
probably the timing needs adjusting slightly cos its fine if I bring the rev's up to 1100rpm

bit tappety from cold. annoys the hell out of me. then runs bang on except ecu light on when under speeds less than 40, so i must have wired up to a go faster sensor on the car somewhere by mistake.

Mines lumpy....not constantly, theres the odd lump every 10 seconds or so.
But my timing is out by a tooth, so could be that.
