A friend has a z16xe.

Seems to be running really rough and lacking power. Seems to be missing in low revs only.

Dropped it onto an OBD fault code reader and following faults were logged;

Having cleared the faults the only persistent fault is the Cylinder 4 misfire.

Lambda sensor was unplugged which cured one of the faults.

What do we reckon with the missing? Coil Pack? As soon as we get the chance we will whip the plug out etc and possibly the head depending on how brave I'm feeling.

I had an o2 lambda sensor code come up on my last corsa, but it was the maf sensor. I think the lambda can show for various problems
