it did come out my car yep

and i'm thanking my lucky fooking stars, as the plugtip broke off when i dropped the plug on the floor as it burnt my fingers

but it would explain the misfire

having said that - new 3bar map sensor, CPS and a set of 071's gapped to 0.7mm and its running sweet as once again
