I'm new to the Scooby world. I recently acquired a 2000 turbo. When idling the engine is a bit lumpy and doesn't run very evenly. Just want to know if there are any obvious things to look for before I hand it over to a garage to check the timing. Any help would be appreciated

 

i'd say the MAF mate , should be a purple one if im correct , mine was bad when i got my first scooby, the plug to the maf had a lose wire aswell , check see if your plugs oki doki ?

edit .. check this buddy may be with a watch

MAF, get it checked or swap it out with a known OK one.

Tip: the "trick" of unplugging it when running does nothing.

 

Cool I've just purchased a new genuine maf plus a new un-oiled air filter. Cheers for the advice
