So I developed a misfire.....
#1
Driving along and suddenly I develop a misfire on cylinder 3....



Not again!!! Doh

Surprisingly, started and ran fine just on 3, still making oil pressure as big end was still on the crank.... considered driving it home if it wasn't pissing oil everywhere lol.... engine number 6 next...

Funnily enough I've developed a misfire...f*cking beans do it to me every time!

But on a serious note gutted for you dude I remember doing the exact same thing (and it even looks like the same location on the engine!) in a car park...Least said about that night the better as I was supposed to be going to a party which was going to be pretty f*cking epic, then the engine decided to throw up its internals all over Tesco's car park and then to make matters worse I lost my rag booted the bumper and instead of hitting a nice plastic bit, I hit the reinforcing bar and damaged the ligaments in my foot...Still not healed completely!

So I feel your pain although I did the dipshit thing and scrapped the car, biggest mistake ever.

I genuinely would, but James is going down different times, and im sure he wouldn't wanna do 340 miles laden with 2 and half tons....
