What if I take spark leads off one at a time and start it to see if it makes it worse or no difference would it help me locate if it's a coil?

So I changed my plugs and coils and so far so good, Went for a spin and it didn't miss.. The old plugs were f*cked to say the least, I previously had a fuel reg failure and was pumping a lot more fuel than needed and rooted the plugs and just so happened to start missing when TC kicked in..

Plugs and coils would be a good pace to start IMO if your having the same issues..

Thanks MiKa, I got mine to a mechanic and it looks like 4 of the coil packs were farked and the spark plugs needed replacing too. Getting a roadworthy while it's there. Time to move her on.

Yeah these BA's are getting friggin old ey.. But I still love mine and want to keep it. Fix/upgrade things as I go, if I sell it I'll be lucky to see anything near $10,000 and selling a car is the biggest pain in the ass ever...

I never drive it anymore and we've got a 3rd ratbag on the way so getting rid of the fuel bill that comes with it. Still got my patrol to mod and take the tools too when I get the urge
