So heres the thing, about a week ago she stared to idle kind of funny, not really a rough idle but definately different than normal, the closest thing i can compare it too is sounding like a boxer engine.
Anyone else have this issue or tell me whats going on? On a side note, oil was changed recently, she has new platnum plugs, new wires, its in the right firing order, new belts etc, i take good car of this car. Someone help -------------------- 1996 Toyota Celica Project Mean Green

Thanks guys, i was thinking that it was a fuel issue so bought a bottle of injector cleaner, i drove her 100 miles straight the other day and she ran fine and would still move like she used to.
as far as more descriptive goes when it drops below a grand is usually when i hear it most, so cap and rotor are on the list i guess, need it anyways, but i will upload a video when i get home, im over 600 miles away from the car right now -------------------- 1996 Toyota Celica Project Mean Green
