960 960: little bit rough idle

Post by **CIK7** » 24 Feb 2021, 17:45

I have a little bit of a rough idle. The worst idle yet was out at parents place about 1 hour ago. RPMs dipped down to about 400, went back up to about 1100 and finally settled down to normal (750 right?). Heres a video when I was at the library. The first dip is at about 00:52/52 seconds. As a side note, I think one or more engine mounts need replacing. Of course the lifters tick, but there's a frequent metal clank with the rough idle.

Could be many things. Do a quick visual check of all the wiring for the coil packs, especially near the connector. These deteriorate with heat and time. This is quick and will at least rule it out if they look good.

The coil packs look super clean and new. Wiring too.
