Hi my disco started up yesterday and as i drove off when i went to rev it it misfired and then took ages to get up to speed, after accelerating for a short time (at about 3500rpm)it sorted itself out and seemed to "lurch forward" suddenly and pick up speed, We started it again about an hour later and same again, I left it, started it up today and it misfired and stalled, i tried to start it and it just turned over for about 3-4 seconds without starting (it normally starts straight away) i left it for 5 seconds and it started ok, i went out for a drive and it just feels like the revs arent rising quite as quick as they should.
the only "tinkering" i had done previous was to liberally spray all the electrical connections/moving parts pulleys etc with the engine running on sunday and was wondering if some spray could have been sucked into the air intake (i have a K&N air filter also) and got into the mass airflo meter thingy as i did spray the headlamp connectors with the engine running and the air intake is right next to it? also the revs seem a little erratic and its iddling at about 400rpm instead of about 600rpm - what could be the possible causes and fixes? cheers
Ps it started running lumpy just on petrol about a week ago but now seems to do it on both petrol and gas.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
