3B Misfire :(

Turns out that my car is now missing when under full load

It was doing some weird stuff on the way home too, at some point it cut complete ignition and other times just one cylinder. Doesnt go as well with only 4 working! So im thinking that i must have a plug lead going duff and also maybe the coil.

What im asking is what coil should i replace the original one for. I know the best route for me is to change over to coil per cylinder, but that isnt an option as my budget isnt very high. Im tempted to buy a stock coil and some new genuine HT leads.

Its worse on cold damp mornings. I have replaced the dizzy complete with new cap and rotor, but this was about 18 months ago.

[audiman]

You git, i had to beg the dealer for them, thats the last time i let you use my tools and my mugs!!

PS the bogs look good

[steve930]

will try to get you another one

[steve930]

it might be worth changing dizzy cap again, coz as you know they do burn out quite quickly, and i know how much you love doing them

Tom, I've a spare coil you can try if you think it's worth it?

I agree with Steve,
going off your many posts, you like to Spank your engine every now and now
so you could suspect Dizzy cap + roter arm after 1.5 years of abuse

Steve, would that be my ex-spare coil? not that I need it but it's just so I know I don't have to go look for it in the garage tomorrow

Cheers and see you soon I hope,
