well im glad i taxed her as it seems she was only running on 3 cylinders but couldnt tell whilst just on my drive so took to work today for a ride out and felt slugish and unresponsive so pulled out leads whilst engine running and found that when pulled 1 lead engine didnt die off ... so swaped a plug and .....KABOOOOOOOM .... she put a smile straight back on my face ...
now just face the option of fast car or slowish bike to use for work .......
