I posted this in the my ride in my pics section so I thought it may get better seen in this section.
It was bad for months and I thought it had been fixed.
Some of my posts in the my ride section:
I have done the paper clip thing and the readout was 12 everytime. So I rang Canningvale Auto Centre and he said it has to be an electrical issue. He has to get the computer read and see how it runs through the tests. Then he said something about resetting the computer? Also as I have changed the plugs, leads, air filter, fuel filter and had the injectors cleaned so he said it has to be electrical.
I am just trying to see if it could be anything else before I take it there and spend money I dont really have atm.

Ok finally had the running rough on fuel fixed. I had the injectors cleaned at Canningvale Auto Centre. He said the fuel pump runs great and he cleaned the system twice to make sure but only charged for once. Now it runs great, touchwood. So after changing the plugs, leads, fuel filter it turned out to be the injectors. At least the rest is now new to.
He said I have to run the system on fuel more. 1 week a month it has to run on fuel. I was running it a few ks here a few ks there.
So hopefully now the car will run smoother than ever.
Driving home today from work I was running it on gas. Great as per usual. 5km from home I flicked it over to fuel and for a few seconds not a problem, then the stuttering under load started happening again. So I had to flick it back to gas otherwise the car had **** power and the revs spluttering everywhere.
What could this be? Contaminated fuel maybe? I had less than a qtr of a tank of fuel left and put $30 in today and since then it has been like this. Could the new fuel mixed with the old fuel cause this. Could it only be temporary?
