I havent got time to do at mo, but can anyone tell me will it be ok to drive about? Or are the affects if keeps on?

misfire might not just be plugs, they are a good starting point but could be a coil pack or plug lead also. If its not firing at all on a cylinder there is a chance of bore wash so best to get sorted sooner than later

Oh forgot to say, I have changed coil pack. Leads seem ok but might be worth changing them if no change. Thanks for that.

Best get on it rapido

If you still have a cat. fitted, it could eventually be damaged.
