Yeah but I actually do sh*t lol.

Do u think a mechanic will be able to sort it?

Most mechanics know f**k all about them and do a sh*tty fix that would normally suit a commodore

He's not that bad... If it were me, I probably would of blown off my arm while dropping the sensor onto my engine cover, causing the engine to fall out and the car to roll down the hill into a preschool full of disabled girls.
Because nothing is faster than a p plater in a commodore.....
except maybe a p plater on a unicorn

I changed the fuel filter about a week ago and the idling got considerably better. It last about 30mins today after a cold start before burbling too
