Hi all on the Mrs mk2 we've had the water in the ports issue now the garage have supposedly done the core plugs and I've changed the jet washers. We are still experiencing misfire when the leads are damp tho ,they are a tight fit in the hole should they be looser to help clear this condensation ie disperse as steam 

any thoughts it's driving her mad lol and me

    It's been done a while now but I think I want someone fresh to look at it if it goes back in 👍
