    Default air/vac leak causing rough idle?

    My VT is suffering a rough idle especially when in drive sitting at the lights, its almost like an intermitant miss. Ive got it on direct injected gas 90% of the time & have replaced everything ignition wise (leads, plugs, coil packs & ignitor) I had it mentioned that gas is hard on seals, hense thinking it might be the problem? Any ideas anyone?

    It does it both petrol & gas. Where is the breather you had the problem with?
