Optimax 150 lumpy running at low revs
My Optimax had a full service some 25 hours ago. This weekend though at just over tick over it sounds as if it's running a bit lumpy, higher revs all sounds sweet. Any ideas?
Thanks Waterbouy

Using the pucker Optimax oil, all plugs were changed on last service remember well paying for them.
