need HELP rough running mk1 cab any ideas what i can try?

[mrgreendog]

if anyone can help me my cab is running so rough it's embarassing sounds like it's missing badly it's a H reg 1.8 gti, i've checked the obvious stuff like plugs leads & dizzie they're all fine, dunno if might be a fuel problem? only just had it mot'd & it was fine it just developed this fault.. any ideas to try will be welcomed before i have to send it to a garage which no doubt will cost sh!t loads.. matt 07971081576

Aye, could have sucked up some of the rust from the filler neck and tank.
