Default need help my 99 cobra idling rough

I just bought a 99 cobra like a few days ago and it is idling rough.... Im thinking it might need an oil change but what else do you think it could be.

it has 63k miles it also makes some noise when i turn the car on and just sit there... Im also thinking about a tune up or something. what do you guys think

Needing an oil change won't give your car any idling problems.

You can get help if you describe the sound and everything...

Go to ford. The'll even check to see if somethings wrong. Sometimes they can be helpful. If not then go to a good shop.

Depends on whats wrong. It could be around 100 or it could be a few hundred depending. Call and ask dealere\s what they want for looking at it. If it sounds fair go in and get it checked out.
