Replaced the plug leads as it had a no fire on cylinder 1.... down to plug lead I thought so replaced them all...

Also replaced all spark plugs for new NGK twin electrode as the Champions that where in are basically fubar with weak spark...

Seems the DISpac has decided to call it a day (4th time) so ordered a brand new Bosch off Ebay, will be here Tuesday along with a brand new set of pkug leads as now it just aint firing at all, except for on number 5 cylinder....

Really couldn't have come at a worse time as its my Mums funeral tomorrow.... having to rely on other people for a lift, really doesn't cut it.. I don't do passengering very well....

Really getting to the end of my tether with this motor now... it'll be up and running again on Tuesday/Wednesday I guess but this isn't the first time its decided to eat the ignition system...

Check the scuttle is sealed, the DIS packs last very well until they get a regular drowning from rain water.

Blimey, I knew it had long lasting effects, but I haven't smoked since 1992!

Fitted a new thermostat and a new N/S headlight to the MV6. Not many jobs left to do now
