rough idle a4 1996 2.8 12v, now hesitates during accelerat..

Nightmare car from the start. Had rough idle prob for a year now,
mostly in cold. Through tons of $ at her, turned out to be idle
valve. Doh! All vacuum lines,breather hose, redone, new TB. Now
after two weeks of smooth sailing, idle is extremely irradic, and
now hesitates while accelrating. Audible "ticking" sound from
bonnet, is this a distributor/coil problem? Also put in new plugs,
no effect, but plug wires look old.

An ignition problem gets worse with compression. It would run well at
idle but shake at high throttle with low RPM.

Did anything get gunked up while you had a faulty idle valve?
