Depends why its doing it. Mine was because of the HT leads. But first I'd changed the spark plugs (about Â£12-15). The leads were about Â£40 for the 16v but the 8v ones are cheaper I think.

I'd suggest checking and cleaning the plugs first. Then try to find out which cylinder is mis-firing.

Cheers steve, iv just looked at the spark plugs and one has blown and covered in petrol so its only 3 cylinders at the moment

, getting leads change and new spark plug and that will hopefully do it.
