I'll leave it until I can source some replacement ones or the misfire comes back. I need to get to work at 4am tomorrow morning so was panicing a bit! Where are best for new leads, and are standard or uprated ones the best bet?

Yeah swapped them over and the problem has gone completely. I'm really confused now! Any ideas what could be the issue?

I wouldn't say bargain - there's no Cup styling pack, aftermarket wheels and also that big gash on the bonnet. Also LOL@Milltek and Yozzasport stickers... one of each? :rasp:

When I unplug the injectors they all do the same thing now. Prior to changing the leads around, cylinder 2 was the one that when I unplugged the injector nothing would happen. I've not had it plugged in if that's what you meant by code, I couldn't find anyone with a machine.

Yep I was getting ready to break it! I tried the leads earlier but there must have been an air leak then too (albeit it wasn't making the screaming noise, just revving higher). Okay I swapped two full leads around. The car is running better now but still misfires if I rev it slightly. When I...

Re: Misfiring + Engine Light (& now noise from engine) Just double checked and this was the problem! I'd not screwed one of the bolts in all the way (just didn't pinch it tight) so it might have been out of place a little bit. It's gone now and the revs are normal, back to how they should be...

Re: Misfiring + Engine Light (& now noise from engine) HT leads are in the correct places. Inlets are on correctly and everything is plugged in and nothing fell in the engine as I kept an eye on it making sure nothing would. I don't know where the noise is coming from but I don't want to run...

Re: Misfiring + Engine Light (& now noise from engine) Cheers Danny. I seem to have buggered something up whilst taking the inlet off to pull the HT leads out. I swapped one lead around with another then it revved loads, so I turned it off and swapped everything back to normal. Now something's...

Okay I've no idea what's happened but I've put everything back to normal and it's idling really high and making a strange high-pitched screaming noise. WTF have I done?! :dapprove:

Do I need to swap the entire lead over or just where it goes into the engine? Edit: just swapped one over (full lead) - car revved it's nuts off and spat a flame. Err!

Job done. Thanks again for all your help. The same cylinder is still doing nothing when I unplug the injectors even though I've swapped them around. Am I alright to leave them in the 'swapped around' position or do I need to change them back? Does this mean that it's a HT lead that's at fault?

Spot on... I can't get them back in now though! Edit: into the manifold.

No airbox?!

How do the injectors come off the fuel rail? I can see a little silver metal clip but no idea how to move it!

Ta! Had a look, when I unplug each injector the car engine revs lower... except when I unplug the 3rd one from the left when it does nothing. Does that mean that the 3rd one's knackered?

Right I'll go and have a look. Thanks a lot :)

Thanks for the help, very useful should I have to do the job. Checking the leads, do I pull them out of the coil pack or the other end?

That looks fantastic!

Got them on in the end :) what a load of messing about!

I'm struggling getting one of the dust covers over the piston, it seems too small inside to slide over it. Any ideas?

I like it, it's eye catching. But that could do the opposite and take the attention away from the photo. The first one is much more subtle in that respect.

I had this problem once. An easy fix was to: Undo passenger seatbelt Open passenger door Swiftly turn right Close door It soon stopped :approve:

I have cleaned the engine bay but only where the strut tops are. The water did dribble down but drained out near the wheel arch area. Thanks for the advice. If I'm testing for leads, do I unplug them from the coil pack or at the other end? Also, how do I unplug the injectors? I've never seen...

Does it sound like 'stopppppppppp drivinggg so fastttttttt'? I can see how that could get annoying.

I've not tried that yet - what would I be looking out for and how would I know if one was faulty?

They are, they've been fitted since I bought them but I only just noticed that they sit like this at the bottom and wasn't sure if it was a problem or not. It drives completely fine though so no worries now :)

Cheers, I'm hoping it's not as big a job as an injector though. Are there any other checks I can do to diagnose the problem? Could it be one of the leads or even the lambda sensor?

I wouldn't use them tbh! Ears Motorsport (they are on eBay too) have always been the best for my Pzeros.

My door handles are that colour :dapprove:
