21 Turbo 21t Exhaust Popping ...

Any ideas guys ? ...



My 21t has been sitting in the lock up for a while and on a recent start up it was idling really bad, I guessed it was maybe old fuel so I popped in 2 gallons of fresh fuel, it has improved but is still popping out the exhaust.
At the engine end it sounds fine. I took each plug lead off and all cylinders are firing.
When you try and drive it will be fine then suddenly kangaroo then be fine again.
The popping only happens at idle.
 
Id be looking to clean and regap the plugs (or replace), and get the injectors looked at/serviced. It's a constant miss, but not a full miss, so something isnt happy from being stood I bet.

A good drive wouldnt do it any harm either, i'd sulk if you dumped me in a damp garage for several months too :P
