1994 540i V8 - Rough Idling

I paid around R650 for my CCV plate from the dealers a couple of months ago.

But you might be wasting your time and money trying to improve the idle on an M60...............

im about to do a repair myself on a 3.0 v8 motor... same issue
it started with a slightly lumpy idle, the car now does not idle properly at all untill it get to temp.

the problem? other than the regular valve cover gaskets.
there another set of gaskets which keep the cam oil spray from seeping through and onto the plugs and coils... this gasket leaks, fouling and half fouling the spark. the spark inturn jumps all over the show...

my M60 idled butter smooth before this....
