Lumpy Tickover

Post by Clarkie » Mon Aug 21, 2006 10:12 pm

Car was serviced at MMC before KH on Saturday. Ran well all day never missed a beat. Started fine yesterday but then setlled into lumpy tickover and wouldn't run clean. Level's all OK and no lights. Took for quick blast and after the car warmed up it cleared and has been fine since, any ideas :?:

My yota engine has the same issue, and only at idle.

Its a faulty oxygen sensor according to the ECU
