As the title says!
I was wondering if a helpfull chap (or chapess) could let me know if my thinking is right...
In the morning, it started, then stalled when under any power (and sounded rough). It then woudlnt want to start. Or it vaguelly did, and sounded like it was on one cylinder. There was a smell of unburnt fuel.
I left it 10 hours, and tried again. Started, ran roughly, then seemed to slowly get better as it warmed up. My guess is damp caused this. (it has been damp and raining for 3 days solid). I checked the gap on the plugs, they seemed to be in around the right region (1mm ish). My thought is, replace coil pack, HT leads, maybe the plugs. Is this overkill? is there something else I should look at first?
Many thanks!
