is it a rough idle or a missfire?
what rpm is it idling at? sometimes the mixture difference between say 700 and 800rpm can be the difference between a rough idle and a reasonably smooth idle, also with a modified
engine it is common to raise the idle a fair amount to a point where the engine settles down say 1000-1200rpm, which is usually more prefered anyway as it is closer to the point where
the oil pump can give full oil pressure. also i know you will have checked it but ignition timing retarded excessivly can cause rough idling.
sweet man i hope all is good.
choice from chris.
