#1: Car idling Weird Author: Boywonder7, Location: AberdeenPosted: Thu Aug 02, 2012 1:15 pm ---- Looking for some help with my 1.1 batboy. Drove the car home from work yesterday fine.. Got into it this morning and was idling all over the place, Plugged the diagnostic machine in at work and threw up P0030 Code random misfire .. last time i got this code the coil pack had packed in so i changed it to no effect, iv also fitted injectors tonight but had to use the old wiring harness as the plugs were different. Car now sounds like its hunting but will rev up fine.
Any suggestions folks would be much appreciated before i loose patience with it?

Take it out and give it a clean with some WD-40 (or better)
Or maybe have to replace if it's bust
