Hi guys,

I just replaced my clutch and my car is idling roughly now. It has no rev. counter so i cannot much say how much the idling speed is. Could it be that the idle is high and i need to lower it? The engine is running fine and isnt misfiring but its bothering me. The engine is the 1.1 55 SPI.

Thanks :)
 
Can you describe "idling roughly" a bit more?

Generally, a hunting idle (revs going up and down) indicates an issue with the idle air control, a sticky, or over tight, throttle cable.

A high idle is generally an inlet side air leak

A rough idle when cold can be an early sign of a HG issue or simply ignition leads on their way out.
 
Problem solved. A broken vacuum hose was the problem. Thanks for the help :)
