SLIGHT MISFIRE???

[danh172]

Hi, just wondering if any1 has had the same problem i'm getting, on tick over if you stand by the exhaust you can hear it slightly misfiring. also when accelerating it splutters n spits. Is this likely to be the leads n plugs needing a change or coil pack/s? Also is it easy to acces all these because you have to remove the piece from the top of the engine?

cheers

I had a slight misfire and turned out to be plugs. You need to take off the top inlet manifold (think thats what its called) 7 x 10mm bolts and then you will need a 16mm socket for the plugs. Took me about 30mins to do so not too hard.

Plugs you need are NGK PFR6E-10 (£40ish online delivered)
If it turns out to be leads they are about £100 from renault i believe. I have a 2nd hand set which i bought and didnt need if your interested. Can post for £20 if needed.
