So I was under my car changing the motor mounts yesterday when my mate took a glance at what I was doing, and pointed out that one of my exhaust manifold gaskets was not fitted properly.
Doh!
Immediately visible looking up from underneath the car, but when I changed my head gaskets two years ago I'd only been looking from above. I don't want to work out how many thousand miles I've been driving with the one cylinder unable to exhale properly.
Anyway, now it purrs at idle properly without stuttering out, which had been driving me mad looking for the cause of the problem!
