Default Missfire, cutting out and not revving

Hi

Ive tried searching but have come up with no answers, i went to use my car for the 1st time tonight after leaving it all day in the rain, i managed to get to the end of my road until it started to miss-fire only revs up to 2500 revs an it cuts out, tried to start the car again an it was running on 3 an dies about 10 seconds later, i am thinking it is either the plugs, leads or coil pack or all 3.

Car in question is a 1998 turbo 2000

Any help much appreciated

Thanks
Mark

Check your intercooler or associated pipes aren't leaking/disconnected.

I had similar symptoms when my boost pipe popped off
