Hi guys.

I have a suby donk in a vw. It seems to be "idling up" all the time. Has very high idle.
It is also maybe running on 3 cylinders. Engine has been sitting for a while.

Any ideas what these may be?

What Engine? "Suby donk" is a bit of a usless discription.

Put a set of plugs in it and then go to Autobarn and ask for a set off points for it! It may take a while to find a part number!!!

Suggest you learn a bit more about the engine you have or take it to someone who does.
Most like the idle control valve needs a clean and upper engine cleaner.

Plugs and leads were always getting done. I was only sharing to provide information. Car is already with someone.

Sorry mate didn't mean any offence, it was just funny as modern engines haven't had points for a looong time. Most mechanics these days wouldn't know what points are.
