Apologies, I completely forgot to mention that when I put the car in drive or reverse then it starts to idle fine. I only seem to be getting the idle problems when I'm in park or neutral.

Unfortunately I find myself back on the forums again as I have been pulling my hair out once again with an issue that I can't seem to make sense of. A few months ago my 4.0L V8 98 P38 started idling erratically whereby it would start fine but within about a second the idle speed was around...

I have had a small oil leak on my 98 4.0 GEMS engine for a little while but had been unable to locate the source, I initially thought it was just simply the sump gasket as I could see the oil dripping from the sump. Unfortunately this proved to be incorrect as when I was replacing the drivers...
