Good work.

Injector cleaner is unlikely to sort it though IMO - i'd be looking for a new one.

Seems like low miles for an injector blockage though.

The fuel filter is pretty good on the S too.

Cheers for the heads up. It seems to be running better than it ever has which is odd as the guy just swapped the injectors about, he never actually cleaned or replaced them! I may just change the sparks and wait to see if the injectors screw up again...

Hmmm.

Could it have been a badly fitted / torqued plug? Or even a bad contact on one of the coil packs?

You would have got a misfire from either of those.

A blocked injector tends to be blocked internally, so moving it from one cylinder to another shouldn't solve that.
