I'd check the fuel mixture. In fact, I'd check the air filter first, notwithstanding what the seller told you. Rough idle could mean a lot of things; spark plug, compression, timing, etc. Have it checked out by a good indy, what ever you pay him, will be more than compensated for by the fuel savings. At $3/gallon, it won't take long either.
