thought id try this on here too to get this sorted asap
my quicksilver is running like crap. after doing mot work i was on my way back to the test centre and decided to give it a good trashing as it had failed emissions. been sat about for a month so put some fresh petrol in and booted it (was fully warm as it had been idling for about an hour whilst i checked everything over.
hit the rev limiter in 2nd and went for 3rd all of a sudden its misfiring like mad. throughout the revs. feels like its running on 2. lots of induction noise and exhaust sounds like a helicopter.
I've checked cam timing. made sure no rocker have snapped. all valves are still held in by the collets. changed Coilpack. injector seals are 100% I've even done the rag trick on the exhaust to check for burnt valves and its all seeming ok. heres a video to show how the exhaust sounds..
oh and plugs are all the right nice brown colour..
