Default Blowing exhaust gasket cause misfire?

Parked my 93 legacy turbo (2.0 turbo) up after work last week and when I've started it this morning it's missing quite badly, hardly driveable due to misfire/hesitation.

I've checked for error codes with no joy, checked all connections round the bay which all looks fine, only thing I could find is the turbo to down pipe gasket is blowing.....could this be causing my problem with it being just before the lambda?

Thanks in advance

Mick

not normally albeit it depends on how bad the leak is........

more likely would be water in the colipacks, etc.

Cheers Alyn, I'm starting to think it was after driving through some standing water on the edge of the road as after leaving it in the garage in the dry it's back to normal with no error codes......
