Sounds like a much more serious problem. Could be any number of things. I would suggest a good mechanic for this one.

agree with kevin here mechanic will sort it. just dont let anyone unqualified mess with it [ie turning up the idle ect] you could do major damage and will end up costing more than it would for a mech to look at it

I have feeling it's summit like a coil gone down I be inclined to try check out if this be case first before paying out big money for a small thing what should I look at to check coils
