any evo experts? (misfire)
my mates evo 4 has developed a miss fire, it started off as just a little miss, nothing much but it has got progressively worse over a couple of days.
Is there a common fault on these? anything he should look out for? we've got some new spark plugs coming for it.

not that I know of
I was warned about this on the MLR as its a well known problem, when I did get a misfire this is what I changed first and it cured the misfire

cheers for the info,
he's got colder rated plugs coming, if that doesn't cure it I'll tell him to try the coil packs.
