Can someone help. My 2001 Y reg punto has been misfiring. This is an intermittent mis-fire as sometimes it is fine then suddenly it will start stalling / misfiring. Does anybody have any idea what could cause such a problem. clearly it must be electrical but what. Can spark plugs or HT leads cause this type of problem?
