C20 LET

tottaly std.

Gapped the plugs the other night to stop it missfiring under load, gapped them to .6

Now the missfire has gone underload, but its now missing on idle and the exhasut is popping slightly, not backfiring, just a subtle pop/thud no very loud also the car is slightly wobbly sitting there on idle.

Fine all of the rest of the time, checked my HT leads all is connected etc.

Thoughts?

Check your lead's again, but do it at night to see if there's any spark's coming off them that you would'nt normally see in the day time.

My car misfired when it wasn't under load and changing the lead's sorted this.
