Default Rough Idling

sitting on a slight incline at the lights, handbrake on, car in neutral, the roughness started and was barely noticeable, but got progressively worse, so much so that i had to rev the engine to stop it from stalling. it's currenly running 95 octane fuel. on inclines afterwards i could not notice any similar symptoms

im wondering if the focus has a design fault where the pick up in the fuel tank doesnt work properly at certain slight inclines.. it might explain why a few people on here who park on a slight hill have been experiencing some difficulty in starting their focii
