as the title says really. a bit of background to help diagnose the fault. The car has been off the road for about 4.5 years the last year i have fired it up once or twice a month with no issues. the last week i have been tinkering under the bonnet installing cables for my winches. when i fired it up yesterday afternoon it was running very lumpy and the rev counter bouncing everywhere with an EML and the same today. After having a look round i noticed that what i think is the PCV (blue cylindrical with two pipes) had become disconnected from the rocker cover. i connected it back up and still having problems. Once it has come up to temp it appears fine. I have been unable to drive it as it is still off the road. the engine in question is the G13B
I think I would be inclined to do nothing until you have it on the road and then drive it regularly and see if the fault corrects its self from regular use.
I say this as I wonder if it's a problem with the valves rather than an electrical item. The valve clearances will close up when warm you see.
If it was ok when last used I anticipate it will resolve its self.
