[doc] Surging Idle + Acceleration Problem = ????

["Alistair McCann" <pilot25dmc@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all

I took the car out today for a quick blast and was dismayed to find that after startup the car had a strange surging idle that lasted untill I had driven the car for around 5 minutes, It also didnt really accelerate that well and stalled on me once untill the car had warmed up.  I drove for about half an hour, stopped for about an hour and then drove for another half hour without any further problems.

So, is this a fueling problem?? The car had sat for around 10 years with fuel in the tank and lines and had really corroded every part of the fuel system because of this I have replaced the fuel tank along with a new pump and baffle so is it just old dirty particles that have hidden in the fuel lines coming loose and slightly blocking the injectors untill I blast them free when I warm the car up or is it something more sinister.

Any help would be fantastic.

Alistair.
