help! i think i broke it [ignition/rough running]

[Alan Pritchard]

Ok, armed with lots of what to look fors last night, I had my first look
under the bonnet.....
It was indeed a vacuum leak!!!!
The cis air boot infact had ridden up of the fuel dizzy, and as the engine
rocks via torque reaction, it was allowing a little unmetred air in!!!
cool!!!!
So it appears my hard starts had rocked the boot off!!!
