Recently my 1985 1.2 8v Nova has had a lumpy idle. Whether its to do with the cold weather or not, I don't know. The engine runs fine the rest of the time. The idle control valve and a dirty carb have been mentioned as possible suspects, but I wouldn't even know what they look like to be honest lol.

Any ideas folks?

if you dont know then its prob best to take it to a garage than can work on carbs

best thing you can do is take the filter off.
an rev the engine and squirt in carb cleaner.
