1.4 Ignition problems

Featured Replies

2000 model , 1.4 Petrol 

 

When its wet outside and moisture in the air the car has problems starting.

Most of the time it starts and it runs very badly and the check engine light is on until it warms up a little then it's all good.

 

I know its moisture but i am not 100% sure where to start my search .. 

 

Distribution cap ? 

Spark plugs ? 

coils ? 

 

If you have some idea on where best to start my search.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

1.4 MPI or 16v?

not 100% sure but 90% its the MPI

Cracked coil pack, replace it and the plugs and all will be well.

Cracked coil pack, replace it and the plugs and all will be well.

 

My thinking too.
