    Hi there,

    Check your spark plugs and leads (replace if necessary), change fuel filter under the car if you haven't done it recently. Also give your throttle body a good clean out with some carby cleaner (may need an old toothbrush or rag to get some of the bits inside). Try running some injector cleaner next time you fill up too.

    Ignition Issue Solved

    Thanks for the help guys, Would you believe a mate gave me an air filter that fitted straight in. Changed it back to the old one and car is running fine, no hiccups or coughs. Still going to change fuel filter, leads, plugs etc.
