Help please..
Hi all I dropped my car in to the garage on Thursday to have the rocker
cover gaskets replaced as the both leaked, also a set to plugs at the same
time. The garage said they would check the coil packs for cracks and none
where found. They also steam cleaned the engine bay afterwards. After picking the car up I noticed a slight misfire at low rpm. I put this down to
the steam clean.
Well yesterday was the first time I managed to take it for a run and on boost
through the range it missed the cleared about 3 or 4 times from 2.5k to 5.5k
also on a light throttle in second gear say turning in to a road it does it then.
Any help or advice please the car is a bog standard 95 UK turbo 2000.
P.S. no lights on the dash.

probably moisture on the ignition system. remove plugs, check them, check plugs fire by earthing them individually, also allows you to check leads. if one plugs doesnt work, check with another to eliminate lead fault. remove all plugs before testing so engine had no compression and spins freely.

As it was a main dealer that did the work should I just call them and get them
to sort out why it's missing? As I'm guessing I shouldn't get charged as it's not
right..
