My Focus MK1 1.6 Petrol has a problem, only started today

 

It is very low on power and stutters like mad

 

I've checked and cleaned the spark plugs and leads 

made sure the air filter etc was ok

 

Any ideas please, as I need it for work tonight

 

 

Thanks

    You were lucky. Coil pack failure on my mk1 killed the ecu. I had to spend £400 on a new resistor...

    And I even had to have a second brand new coil pack fitted or the place the garage sent the ecu to wouldn't guarantee it...

    Glad you got it sorted.
