    Gl running rough as

    lately ive been having a bit oftrouble with my gl, engine is not holding a steady idle, using too much fuel, flat spotting at different times, i know for a fact its running rich as we plugged it in to a diagnostics tool, but thats all the info it said
    has going to just replace engine temp sensor, but dont know what else it could be
    any help would be appreciated
