    Hi

    My 440 (1.8i) has started to run lumpy at idle - the best way I can describe
    it is that it is a phutt phutt phutt through the exhaust and the exhaust
    gases themselves 'pulse' from the tailpipe rather than being ejected in one
    continuous flow. I am aware that these engines are not the smoothest around
    but the idle was definitely smooth when I purchased the car.

    Any ideas anybody?

    Thanks in advance

    Ade
