2/3
just had the car washed, now the cars running lumpy
i took the plugs out and dried them all with a airline still no joy,
ive noticed that 2/3 cylinders are not sparking at all i can remove the lead wilst running and it does not even die or hesitate, if i remove 1/4 the car dies or sometimes runs worse
what else can this be possibly coil,ht leads, etc.etc.

quite possibly. Remove the spark plugs and check the spark. remember a missfire can be caused by lack of spark or fuel

ok, thats a start then. TBH i think coil pack broken down is a fair bet then
are you running standard leads?

standard leads are renowned for breaking down too. But as above the symptoms you are describing, would point at coil pack IMO

Would be worth swapping a lead from 1or4 with 2or3 before buying parts.
