Title: Mis-fire gone
Post by: Dazzler on 14 December 2008, 18:21:37

Yippee, the mis-fire has been sorted i hope :)

The plugs were in a bad way, as in the ceramic was burnt on most of them and the leads had seen better days......

I am very surprised as to how bad the plugs were after 9k to be honest. :-/

9K? That's not good. Is she running hot?

Could be an indication that it's running lean. Unless the plugs had worked loose?

2 of the plugs were not as tight as they should have been the others were fine to be honest.
Still get the hicup pull away on gas but fine on petrol.
