• Ford Focus 2000 1.6 Zetec 125,000m - Misfire, no spark to no.4cyl 27 Aug 2017 (Forum)
   Replace with old 50,000m plugs (yes, I hoard things which might be useful..) which were working perfectly at 102,000m when I replaced them - same misfire.   Pull off HT leads, rest them back on plugs, start engine, lots of spark from 1 2 and 3 with engine slowing when pulled up away from plug, no spark from 4 and no change in engine speed.   Replace the very short no.4 HT lead with  a spare one I have knocking around - still no spark.
