Hi guyz,

Maybe I'm posting this topic to the wrong section but here goes. My subaru impreza turbo year 2000 when hot it idles between 200rpm and 1000rpm, the rev needle when the car is stationary keeps going between these revs and sometimes even cuts out. Any ideas is much appreciated.

Kindest regards,
Steve
