    Baptism of fire

    I've been an S2 Avant owner for a few weeks and have spent a small fortune already.

    4 Goodyear Eagle F1s
    Pads all round
    BMC induction kit
    Oil and filter.

    Just when I thought I was set, a misfire occurs on pot 4 (4th from the pulley end).
    So I go through all the tests expecting a faulty coil pack or plug and end up at the dreaded compression test..... no compression

    So yesterday I pulled the head off, didn't have any more time to inspect it properly but I hope its valves and not a cracked head. A small crumb of comfort is that I have a friend who works in an engine shop so its off to him.

    Happy easter
