Rough Idle....
ok I haven't started or driven the car since friday, but did move it yesterday only ran for less then 5 minutes, Today I went out and started her up ... She ran like **** and blew 2 blue clouds of what smelt like fuel out of the exhaust :?
this could be contributed to my dieseling problem I have been told that I will have to wait another 2 weeks for the regional rep to approve any internal work.
I will be contacting my dealer on Tuesday and I will be driving it regardless...
could this be the begining of catastrophic failure ?

Rob..go start the car and see if it still exists..
It'* not something we can determine from the car not running for one day. It'* unexpected to say the least.
