Hello, I've been having this problem for a while but have been somewhat avoiding dealing with it
Upon ignition, the revs drop below 500 rpms just before surging back up again. On a cold start it usually doesn't start on the first turn, I usually either have to turn it a few times or turn the starter until it starts to pick up. I filmed a video of this problem today (attached below), but it was on a warm engine. I had one instance where the car wouldn't start at all and had to be towed to start. What could be the culprit?
Also i'm getting pretty poor mileage, ~15 l/100km urban. Apart from the start issues and increased consumption, the car seems to be running okay, the head was rebuilt ~4000 km ago, recently repaired starter, fresh plugs and wires, recent oil change, maf is okay, o2 sensor works fine.
