OK guys I posted this two weeks ago!
My disco runs great going down the road but my idle when stopped will go to 500 rpm some times and some times I it runs a little rough I can feel it!!
Last week my check engine light came on so the next day I went down to get the codes and on the way my light went off but I still had a code it was a cyl 1 misfire.
What I have done I pulled the plug looked great only has 7,000 miles on it did the throttle body cleaning and cleaned my low speed idle. I called this morning the dealer that sold me the disco and asked them what they did before they sold it to me they said they replaced the spark plug wires and they look new.
I have only gone 15 miles after cleaning the low speed idle it was very very dirty I haven't felt the rough idle but still have a low idle???????
What should I do next??

I am thinking of going down and getting my alternator tested could that be just getting weak??
FYI this did start after I changed my water pump I wounder if getting coolant in it or maybe something got loose or am I way way off? I was able to jiggle the spark plug wires when it was idling rough and nothing happen.
Also batt is 2 years old
