Go away 301

Been running the tf a lot lately...up and down dale ..out and about..never missed a beat..actually I was thinking how responsive the engine was..last service I did it had 2 new coil packs and a set of spark plugs due to the fault code popping up po301 misfire cyl 1....changing the packs and plugs cleared the fault...........anyway driving around derbyshire today and the engine missed a beat now and again....didn't run nice at all......so popped in the garage tonight to take a peek...glad I did that mod on the engine cover screws...made it a lot quicker getting the cover off...anyway connected to obd and hello 301

Swapped the ht leads around and still 301 cyl 1 misfire. ....I then took out the coil packs changed them around connected ht leads back and hey presto no faults....I will replace the ht leads has a matter of course and just hope 301 doesn't come back to say hello.

perhaps you are approaching this wrong....

You know, I'm almost tempted to code up a numerolgy extension for ELM fault code readers... Its probably equally as helpful as most of the codes you get back

Crikey....I had to go make a cup of coffee after reading that!

Somewhat!

Im really liking my idea of numerology inspired fault code reader... It wiuld as you note need to give shorter, more pithy answers.... perhaps in the form of a Haiku....

301: "Like the firefly glow,
the spark of your existence
sputters on and off"

.... Or perhaps Yoda...

"Knackered, your injectors are, imbalance to the force is bringing"

Just had to make myself a spam sandwich!!

Oh no look at the fault code this time.

I had to go for a lie down ! Got brain fade . :nonod:

I apologise that my cultural diversions and attempt at humour have proven so taxing. I shall in future restrain my ramblings :coat:

So today with car polished and the sun beaming down...roof down and headed out to leek staffordshire. ..the tf began to misfire now and again...so stopped for a morning pint in leek....sod the coffee gone right off it...made a phone call to motor factors. ..after collecting some new ht leads from them I headed home to fit the leads..has I pulled the ht lead from number 1....this happend.

The end pulled off....so on went the new leads

And with everything put back in its place I set off for a short test drive to wedgewood.


This time the engine was more responsive and didn't miss a beat.

Job done Mr MGTFBLUESTREAK . You've earned yourself another drink . :beer:
My better half and I have been for a little run out over Sutton Bank to Helmsley in North Yorkshire and our TF is running well , which is always a little worrying if you know what I mean .

Yes nice country...I used to deliver engines to a guy who owned a ww2 Canadian airbase nr Thirsk. ...he told me tales of Sutton bank
How his vintage bus he rebuilt would successfully pull up it...are we talking of the same place.I rember now...he gave me directions to my next drop off.The route he gave me was over Sutton bank...I was in a transit pick up with a 4 wheel trailer on tow...I faintly remember a part of the bank with a small bend in it where the pick up began to wheels pin and bunny hop on its back wheels.
