   Started car up this morning and the revs were going everywere ,
   Sounds like it might be missfireing or somehing but u can still drive it ,
   Wen u pull off feels like its running on 3 cylinders or somthing roung wit the compression ,
   But funny thing is.if I put my foot down it judders and then drives fine , happens every time I turn the car off for more than 15 , or 20 min ,
   Did notice I had water comeing of my rad cap the other day ,
   But there is no watr in the oil or any thing
   Any one else as confussed as me ????

   Could be your coil pack, does it chuck up your engine light?
