intermittent miss fire

[Roger Red Hat]

now as this could be one of a hundred things i thought id find out if there are any thing common on that causes it on the f7p's before i start the search.

seems to happen under load (pulling away, foot to floor 30 in 5th etc) and when its hot.

cold not a problem. all tho i havent tested it high rmp from cold, and am not going to.

personally i think its the fuel pump, as thats been playing up for a while (wurrs REALLY loud when its nearly empty) but its never played up before..

anyway ideas my dears?

and yes the clio is still on the road :P

cheack make sure its not sparking somewhere. If u wanna try wrapping the Leads in electrical tape and see if that helps. The fuel pump should make a steady hmmm if its gurgling it may need renewing

A loud whirring when low is not uncommon on any car.

as above check for leads earthing.

dizzy/rotor arm ok? plugs ok?

maybe check coil.
