Engine started running lumpy
« on: 19 June 2010, 12:38:07 »
Hi, my 2.6 V6 started running lumpy as if it was not running on all 6 cylinders and the engine management light came on. Got me home switched it off restarted ok but still lumpy, should i change the plugs and coils or is there something

else i should be looking at. :-/  Had codes read and comes back 300 misfire   301 cylinder 1 misfire, so presume i need to change plugs/coil pack ;)

EML means fault code/s are stored, so getting them read would be a good start before thinking about renewing parts  ;).

As Phil says, read the codes using the pedal trick http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1189022687
