As the title stated my car is idling roughly. I went to crank my gs a couple hours ago and when it started it was almost as if it was gonna die out right then. It was idling rough. I will admit it was low on oil but I had started it this morning and it started up just like it has for the last 2yrs. I do need to replace the valve cover gasket I just didn’t get to it this weekend I turned it off and turned it back on still the same thing I was hoping that it was just a fluke. But sadly it’s not. Is my engine ****ed up? Am I able to add oil and remedy my problem?

 

Is your VC gasket actively leaking? Because if the seals around the spark plug tubes are leaking too then oil will drip into the spark plug wells and can cause rough idle or random hesitation. Does it clear up as you start driving?

 

Yea they are I got the last of the parts in around Sunday but was planning on doing it this weekend
