Help Needed 16v Running lumpy, Idle's all over the place. Down on power

Recommended Posts

Hi all!

 

I started my 2.0 16v (l reg) today and noticed upon pulling away that it seemed to lack a lot of 'oomf' also was idling all over the place. I took a quick look at the engine bay and noticed that the engine was moving a lot more than i had previously seen. Kinda like it was vibrating. I know that it will move slightly but nowhere near this much, the dipstick was moving backward and forwards about an inch. I then turned the engine off then back on. Upon doing this it idled fine and the engine movement was gone.

 

Im pretty stumped...

 

Any help given will be greatly appreciated.
