ok, so i've replaced the rocker gasket which was corroded away allowing oil to pour into the sprak plug holes and thought that the misfire was obviously caus there was oil in the holes......or so i thought.

we cleaned out all the oil, put in new basch super 4 spark plugs and bosch spark leads and it was ok for about 5 miles and started misfiring again?

anyone got any other ideas?

there is a GSi at a scrap yeard near me, reckon its worth gettin the dispack off it and seeing if it makes a difference.

it only misfires between bout 2500 - 5000 rpm. (Corsa B GSi by the way, C16XE)

Any advice would be good, cheers.

Mart.
