Mornin ppl, i need sum help with a '93 corsa b sri. When i first start it up after it's been sat for a while (i.e Overnight or even a few hours) it ticks over really lumpy . I've tried resetting the ECU as i didn't know what else to do but that didn't help. Has anyone got an idea what it could be?
Also i know this will hav bin asked a million times so sorry  but will 17's with 205 size tyres go on with a drop of apparently 45mm but it's more like 50 imo on springs alone? Thanx for any help

old engine at this stage... is it serviced regularly?... it may be sumtin simple like a distributor cap, leads and rotor arm.
the temp sensor went on my yoke before but the car kept cutting out at junctions and even tryeed to cutting out between gears..
