I think it might be a bit worn as I've adjusted the valve clearances 
before to try and solve the tapping I've heard from that area at certain 
RPMs - but made no difference.

The stuttering/lumpyness actually seems to go after a few miles driving 
- but immediately returns when you stop and restart the engine, even it 
was fine before (eg. stopped and restarted at some lights).

Is it worth purchasing an OBD reader of some sort to see if anything is 
wrong, or would it only show a fault code if the engine light is on?
