I put in 6 of these sort V0091132006, when i getto about 3k it used to pull like crazy, now it just seems to slowly pull upto speed. Also changed the oil to 5w-30 fully synthetic and the oil filter. What could be causing this?
Best way would be to pull on lead of at a time and see if there is a difference in engine note.
If you pull one off and there isn't, that cylinder isn't firing.

found out one of the plugs on the back wasnt in far enough, siuts a lot lower in the hole that the rest of the plugs, had to really push hard to make it click onto the spark plug. Does this mean my plug is dead?
The thing about the V is that if its missing all the time its not always easy to tell! I had mine running on 5 and was worrying about it - had a look at the HT leads and one was fubar.
90 quid from Vx or 5 quid from your friendly scrappy :beer:
might pop down to the crappy then, the spark plug is only sitting as far in as the other plugs as i took a lead from another cylinder and that sat higher than the one in originally. So i think the lead has broken down inside, typical it is one of the leads in the back that this has happened to.
