It feels like im driving a badly tuned v8, now i do have a enxhaust leak im not sure if that is causing the problem, that is VERY annoying, but general ideas would be good, gave it a general going over over the last few days (plugs, oil and air filter). Happens when the car is hot, and usally stopped with clutch in, or even in neutral. Could the oxy sensor be causing this? But have noticed when the car is moving it holds revs fine.

is the idle rough or is it hunting for idle - like over a few seconds?

if its hunting, it could be related to the conversion... maybe your TPS or ISC arent wired properly?

if its rough, ive got no idea!

mmm ok, i guess it seems like its hunting, and yes could be related to conversion but they shouldnt have been affected, it just that only happens bad when hot.
