My Mitsubishi Stable

Decided it was time to spring clean the garage.

i hate mystery problems like these. Great at doing your head in. have you tried things like unplugging the air flow meter or engine coolant temp sensor. If hose clamp made it run worse then it suggests it is running rich. Did you clamp it off completely or just restrict the flow? Does it make a diff...

wobbly gauges are one of a kind. haha but at the time i was just happy to have the engine running well. Gauges not wobbly anymore unfortunately.
