So after months of crappy idling and rough tick over I took the plunge and removed my ETM. It didn't look as bad as some of the ones I saw on how to YouTube vids but had a bit of crap in it. Well after a good clean it's back on and after a good run seems to have fixed the problem. The black pipe that connects from the ETM did have some sludge in it, is that normal?
