Bloody things run for a couple of days then the missfires back, no fault codes, definatley confused now, suspect it may be coilpack or leads,is this a fair assumption? :(
either really, oil could have broken down the leads & in turn affects the coil/disspack.
surprised you havent seen me kicking around burton tbh. blue mv6. ;)

think its going to be replace the leads and coilpack tbh, might as well do both at the same time cant see the point doing one without the other. Can't say ive seen you round burton but only had the car a week or 2, will keep me eyes peeled, although the partner drives the omega mostly tbh :y
