Cant remember if its Hydraulic Tappets but checking the Tappets would be the next stage could be a burnt valve.

Even the Headgasket may have blown between cylinders.

Get it to a garage to diagnose.

had the same problem about a month ago mate i changed all that no joy in the end it was the injectors air was getting in garage said replaced the lot now running spot on rich

[renagademaster4]

well seeing as its not spark chances are its fuel

a would remove the fuel rail , unlpug the coil pack and turn teh engine over to check all the injectors are working

if thats all fine a would do a compression test

[wilsh81]

yeah going take it the garage cheers anyway peeps

p.s any 1 want buy a new coil pack £53 :A:

[gaz4399]

did you buy a genuine citroen or pug coilpack?

we have had soo many brand new non-genuine coilpacks faulty at our place

i had this problem, it was my coilpack, but unfortunetly my new spark plugs worked at such a high temp and blew my coilpack and all 4 of the plugs burnt out, but 2 were working JUST, ran on 2 cylinders, so poss. plugs?

i had the same problem on my 306 its the injectors i bet 1 of them will be blocked

[liam_VTR]

mine did this and it was head gasket ... get compression test done tbh :y:

[McGuire86]

if it was the head gasket wouldnt it overheat ??

[liam_VTR]

mine didnt ... mine ran fine with the gasket gone

[McGuire86]

:S strange, guess lots of things cause this then. mine misfires when it hasnt been used for a day or 2, but the gasket looks fine. i guess mine has something to do with the coilpack/sparkplus/injector

[liam_VTR]

if it not doing it all the time then yes mate thats what it sounds like :y:

[benwh555]

As all of above it could be one of a few things, get it to a garage and get it tested or you could be changing bits and spending alot more than you need to. To be honest i wouldn't surprised if it was the injectors, but thats just a gut feeling lol.
