Great day out today at Mondello,the weather was shocking and the track was like ice[emoji22]but really did enjoy the day catching up with lads and getting the first run out in the Saxo since October.I really did struggle with grip the AO48,s proving to be not great in the rain and oil covered track.Out of the 7 stages i only got 4 done as I had to retire early with engine trouble.I didn't get a chance to check the car but I'm pretty sure it's a problem with one or two injectors as it seems no be down a cylinder.Coil pack should be ok as I have 4 good dry plugs,but I'm sure I'll get it sorted handy enough.Roll on Bazs track day on the 26th[emoji106]

My engine problem is now sorted thanks to swapping out the coil pack for a ford Mondeo setup.This should be a better setup going forward as it won't suffer the kind of heat the Citroen pack gets down between the head.Thanks to Dec for advice and sorting me out with extra leads for the coil[emoji106]
Noting is mounted yet just wired to see if it works,so I'll tidy the job during the week.

I think I'm taking air around the inlet manifold as its still hunting at idle,also need new plugs as one is all yellow around the collar and still seems to be causing a slight miss fire,but at least all 4 cylinders are back in action[emoji106]

Completely blocked off the ICV inlet on the throttle body last night.I think I had air leaking here causing the hunting issue.I used chemical metal to fill it out as I could sand it smooth.This should help air flow also[emoji106]
