Thing is, if i start the car and drive straight off it run\'s great, but if i start it and leave it to idle, then rev, it starts to miss and backfire anyone have any ideas,i have plugs ordered and i will fit a new gasket when i can find one.Thanks all

Sounds like a vacuum leak,

Have a look around and see if you can see any of the small 3mm pipes have become detached

As far as i\'m aware, there is no engine management light on my \'93 FD. Or certainly, i\'ve never seen one??

There is the red cat \'HEAT\' light which can provide various warnings if you are running an Apex\'i PFC.
