2001 2.0 erratic idle - tommy201
hi guys, about a fortnight ago my bmw stopped, it was diagognosed as a fuel pump problem. i had the injectors and pump refurbished at the factory. ive rebuild it and starts on the button. but at idle it is very erratic. slight touch of throttle and it evens out about 1000rpm. ive checked all the usual suspects but obviously im missing something. it sounds like it might be pulling in some air somewere. anybody any suggestions? thanks
