OK.....This misfire problem is naffing me off now, and I need a reliable car. So thinking of selling the Z as is and buying another once I get my feet under the table with my new job.

 

Basically the car is mechanically sound apart from the misfire. This only happens due to heat soak. ie the car has been running for a while (will go all day without a problem). It only occurs once the engine is switched off and the car has been left for 30 minutes or so.

 

On restarting the car misfires, this then goes away after a while.

 

Bodywork wise, it needs the roof panel in front of the targas sorting (been quoted £180 to get it done)

 

the N/S wing needs attention as it has been filled (badly) by the previous owner

 

the spoiler has the usual problem, nothing major but it's been touched up with a different colour red.

 

the interior is in very good condition with no rips or any major wear. in fact i would say it's excellent condition.

 

Its a manual N/A series 2.

 

I've changed the PTU, Coil pack, Injector Connector trying to solve the problem

 

Someone with more knowledge than me should be able to sort it, but i haven't got the money or time to throw at it anymore.

 

I can't break it as haven't got the room...or the Knowledge...lol

It now has an aftermarket stereo with bluetooth, and clear side indicators.
