Skimmy237 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 As title says what causes it and what do I do? I have changed plugs and leads and it solved it for 2 weeks untill I washed my car now it's missing again? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Take the leads out you have got water down into the spark plug tubes. bit of Vaseline on the tips should do the trick mines doing it now it's started raining again boo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jtaylor1990 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Im assuming u have FMIC? If so the water is going through the scoop and getting into ignition system. As above, try vasaline Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Skimmy237 Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 Is there any way it could still get down into the plugs with a top mount ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skimmy237 Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 Also it's not constant misfire, it's mostly when I'm flat out but then sometimes it can be every time I press the throttle? Does that sound like water in the plugs ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Toffinator Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 If it only does it after you have washed it is water getting into the ignition system mate thats it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

corofin12345 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 these engines dont like water at all.. more than likely went in through the scoop and down on the plugs.. common enough problem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
