Default help with mk6 escort zetec si

Got a slight problem when accelerating low down in any gear, its like its misfiring and chugging real bad up until about 2.5k revs but its had all the plugs and leads changed etc etc, a local mechanic thought it might be the crank shaft sensor so had that changed. Still no luck

Any ideas?

i'd try the lambda first then if that doesnt cure it swap the airflow meter, try that-if you've got a mate with an escort or mondeo just borrow his to see if it improves any.

Funny that, mines doing the same, and I also though about the coil pack, but being Ł60 from Ford made me think twice, just incase its not lol. My plugs were quite black, as if it was running rich. So I'm gonna clean them up today and see if anything happens.
