MK1 Clio 16v
Basically, the story so far is, on some mornings, my valver will misfire slightly, when it's particularly cold out, but when i give it some slight revs to warm it up it soon sorts it out and i can happily drive to work with no further problems.
This morning though, it was quite bad. Started her up and she sounded quite rough as if she just couldn't be bothered, and immediately i noticed there was quite a significant misfire. Not sure whether it was 2 cylinders or just one but it was rocking the car quite a bit. Anyway, gave it some revs for a minute or so to warm up then eventually the engine was running normally again, so i then drove to work without any further problems.
Just wondering what might be causing this?
Recently i've had brand new spark plugs, new leads, new dizzy cap, new rotor arm, and a full service, the only thing i haven't changed is the coil pack (if that's what it's called - the thing on the right hand side of the engine)
Could this be on its way out? Expensive to replace? etc.
Cheers for any suggestions
