Post by: neilr on 26 April 2011, 15:31:22

Hi all got reading of no 4 misfire on code reader wifes 2.6 running a bit rough. I know its probably a plug oroil in the well. But is there any way of checking coil pack without changing it.

Change plugs and see if it clears. But does mean going back in under the cable tray a second time if it persists, but you'll have your answer then.

ASAP though, if there's oil in there it will be cooking the rubber boots, may be usable if caught early enough.
