Slightly erratic idle

Not much of an update. I have 'cleaned' the engine using Forte engine cleaner and Forte injector cleaner. The result? Much improved acceleration and general smoothness but the idle prob still present. Waiting for some MAF cleaner to arrive then, with the Forte intake cleaner I already have, will give all the inlet stuff a good clean.

Did you just clean the MAF I know that doesn't always work. Well never worked for me on 2 separate mafs, wasn't until I bought a third one it sorted it :( 

 

But if the plugs need or are due to be changed that would be my next stop before anything :)

Hi Gambit

Yup, just cleaned the MAF and throttle body. As you say, plugs etc next although in my little head I don't know why that would be it (and several people have told me it could be that). I thought bad plugs or shorting coil would result in rough, spluttering idle
