   hi guy and girls,
   
   ever since ive had my car de-catted, when i start it up it runs perfectly then about 10 seconds in it'll start chugging n the engine starts to wobble but after a couple of minutes its fine again
   
   ive tried new spark plugs fitted them today still no better
   ive given it an oil change
   it has a induction kit and its a 2000 model so it was a manifold change to a 4-2-1 gaskets wer new on the manifold all sealed correctly i just dont know whats up with it
   
   could it be the fuel filter???
   
   any info much appreciated
   
   thanks in advance
   Tom

   Sounds like a Lambda related problem, or it's in need of a good service?
