Misfire 1997 V6

Featured Replies

Low rpm misfire v6 2550cc Mondeo.

Under load in economy mode in overdrive a misfire occurs when gently accellerating. Clears above 2000 rpm. I think plugs or leads. Any ideas?

sounds like a reasonable place to start. I would also do a leak off test to see if your having issues with the output of the injector.

It does sound like leads and its probably worth changing those and the plugs anyway. If you still have a problem, like James says.

New Bosch plugs fixed it!

Old plugs had almost double the gap and very worn.

Result! "cheap fix?
