the car has a full service history last one done at 81000 miles shes only at 83000 i would have thought they would have changed those things as the oil filter looks new but then the sparks i changed did look f*ck*d guess it has to be done if you buy a second hand car tho oh do you not reckon it could be the starter motor?

Suies 106 has problems starting sometimes... its like the immobiliser has kicked (but its not).

I reckon her problem is fuel related. Probably fuel filter.

Ive bought some injetor cleaner for both of our cars today... will see how that goes.

You dont need to wait to refill. Im not doing anyway.

If your tanks half full, put half as much injector cleaner in.

The cleaner should mix well enough in the tank without the need to fill up, I would have thought??
