    Missfire?!?!?!?!

    Update- So last night i removed all the coils and all the plugs one by one. All plugs look brand new still... Coils look alright..... :/ the spring inside of them is quite greasy (not sure if its meant to be) The first one, ie as your looking at engine, the one nearest oil fill cap, was...

    Missfire?!?!?!?!

    yea i see where your coming from. Im no mechanic but i can do basics. My training is on Eurofighter Typhoons so military aviation. i ask about oil around plugs as i thought it may be a detrimental fault i.e coming up past the plugs. but if its just from silly idiots spilling it i can deal with...

    does anyone know the best/cheapest place to get rear disks? Eurocarparts have 50% off on these atm. But don't know if its worth getting another brand rather than Pagid Thank alot.

    Missfire?!?!?!?!

    It wasn't the manifold that was changed. just cat back. i have never touched the manifold. The second lambda has one of them extension sleeves on it so shouldn't have a problem with that as i have always used them on my cars. There shouldn't be any oil in the plug holes but if there is what...

    It had a flat spot yes, but this is defiantly a misfire... It splutters and pops n farts until it clears 3k then goes again fine after. But as i say when you just drive slowly it doesn't do it. Only when you want to accelerate at anything more than a crawl it happens.

    Missfire?!?!?!?!

    Hello guys and girls, My 197 has recently developed a misfire. I have just put a Toyo sports exhaust system on and it seems to have made the misfire worse.... It only happens between 2200ish and 3000ish. Then it clears. Plus only when half throttle or more. Plugs were only changed 3tho ago...
