    Default VR Problem

    i have a 95 model Vr commodore over the last 12 months this problem has gotten worse when i start the car it will start fine and idle fine for a minute than it will idle really rough i can turn the car off than back on again and it will idle fine i can than go driving around but if i stop at idle speed for to long like in maccers drive thru on a busy day the car will start idling really rough again if i turn the car off than back on again it idles fine now this problem is at the point where its happening pretty much every time i drive the car what could this be? i have also just noticed in the last few days while driving on a highway doing 100 it sometimes has a surge but the engine kicks back in and keeps going

    cheers

    I would check the fuel filter first, but it does sound like the pump is on it's way out.

    Can you do an error code check?

    Filters are cheap and need regular replacement.
