been having a few problems for a while now, car is idling high at about 1200rpm, it doesnt start when hot and also i noticed that the plugs are very sooty, took the plugs out today and cleaned them, ran it at idle for a couple of mins and rechecked them, the plugs were just as bad again. any help would be great, thanks.

yeah its overfueling, ive changed the cts but made no difference, also noticed if you rev it quickly it just wants to cut out but if you rev it slowly it doesnt cut out, any other ideas? cheers.
ive also changed 02 sensor, crank sensor, tps, fuel rail, injectors, afm, dizzy, coil, checked timing, the list goes on!
