Quick question, recently once the evo has been out and about and warmed up, when you go to pull away there seems to be what I can only describe as a miss fire although if you stick your foot down it clears it.
This is very intermitant and can't really be pin down to a specific time. Some days can be good as gold, thought it might be a plug or lead on its way out?

Could be, or a plug
When was it last serviced and the filters changed etc ?

I was serviced earlier in the year, but it does sit around doing nothing for days at a time, which propbably won't help

May be worth plugging in the diagnostic tool at a main dealer's just to be on the safe side

could also be dodgy fuel if a vehicle is left and not used for any length of time the fuel start's to go off and does cause misfire's.
