#1: 206 1.4 missing no eml or stop light no codes Author: Rob_s, Location: HuddersfeildPosted: Sun Sep 09, 2012 6:15 am ---- was running ok until it was left to idle for about 20 mins with the fuel light
now runs like a sack of s**t
Miss firing, no codes stored and no eml light etc I presumed it was because it had been ran with hardly any fuel,fresh fuel in still runs like s**te
Im know it's most probably due to lack of fuel it's sucked some crap into the injectors etc
But just incase there's anything else it could be then thought I'd ask I know the coil packs were a common fault
Cars done 120k

Then watch the water on the manifold to see on which cylinder it doesnt evaporate as quickly as the others. That's the cylinder its missing on. Then try swapping a spark plug over to rule that out, if the misfire follows the plug, its a dodgey plug. If it doesn't then do the same for an injector.
