So serviced my 1.1 206 and a few hours later she started running on 3 cylinders, local auto factors gave me the wrong spark plugs so quickly replaced them with bosch super 4's that I'd used before and a few hours later she developed and began running on 3 cylinders, I've tested the injectors and coilpack and the plugs are fine any ideas as to what's wrong?

Cheers in advance Smile

Reset the engine base data by disconnecting the battery for a few hours and let it relearn the best settings. Always a good idea to do that whenever changing major engine running affecting components but particularly if you put the wrong plugs in as the base data for fuel trims and ignition timing will be all over the place

What were the make and type of the original plugs?
Are Bosch super 4s actually compatible with your 1.1 engine?
Spark plugs

As a test, put the old plugs back in, if it runs sweet again then there's your problem
