thx for the replies, i have just installed new plugs as part of the elimination process, its a series 2 engine etc but the car itself is one of the ser 1.5, ill look into the ignitor I will do a search after this to find out where it is located, im regional but would like to replace the coil harness any chance sum one has one for sale?
scotty 2 of the afm's are on still working skylines, mates that work out in the mines so a could use theirs' while they whernt in town it is starting to sound like a connection or wire problem within the harness so i will need lotsa luck how hard is it to just replace the whole harness?
