Hi
I seem to have fixed the missfire..... Well almost!
The car seems to be fine when you start it from cold. The car will also be fine to drive when hot but as soon as you turn the car off/restart it will missfire for a couple of mins unless you thrash the balls of it! The revs will also drop to say 500 - 600 rpm if you stop. I have changed my lambda sensor and my coolant temp sensor.
Any ideas to what it could be?
Also when we took the spark plugs out we noticed that 3 were wet with petrol and one was dry! Thing is if this injector was not working surly the car would missfire all the time? I will try replacing the injectors tomorrow anyway as I have another set. Could it also be the fuel pump? If so how would I go about checking to see if it is faulty.
Thanks
