The guy I bought the car off said he did a full service before I bought the car, so im hoping maybe he used different plugs, I purchased genuine ford ones. will check them against each other once they arrive.

I have got paper work saying they was changed about 6 months ago, I know some cars are fussy with sensors, would you know if its the same with this,

Brilliant, I have used diagnostics before but the only live data was that free app on my phone to check my boost gauge was working on my vRS. so hopefully I can work it out eventually. I would say it does hunt but not really bad, but sometimes especially when in reverse it has stalled a few times. and can be very lumpy when cruising along,. its fine if I have my foot planted though
