Very low idle - 500RPM, Slow to pick up from idle, loss of power, spluttering and farting, VERY loud exhaust note.
X16XE by the way. Any sensors that could cause this?

Sorted now.
After speaking to Monster last night, we thought the timing belt could have slipped when the pulley botl was loose lastnight. Spoke to Beardy, he said unlikely. I checked the vacum pipes which were OK. Then then took off the HT leads. The plugs were swimming in oil. I mean swimming, they were totally covered. The cam cover seals have been weeping recently, but now they've given up.
Lastnight while doing my bottom pulley I filled the oil up. The oil drained into the plugs aswell as the sump. Oil + HT leads = Plugs no sparky.
What a TWAT
