hi, i have put a rebuilt m20b25 engine in my car which i built my self. it seems as though the car has a slight misfire when cold but sorts itself out when warm. i have used my old afm from my old 325 which i think was adjusted slightly. could this be the problem, if so how do i go about readjusting it back to standard?
thanks

any garage that does m.o.t's will have an exhaust gas analyser... with that shuved up your chuff as it were you can accurately set the mixture.
