Pressure washed the engine last night, failed to start afterwards. Left it over night, car started fine, but is now mostly rubbing on 3 cylinders. Any common things I should be aware of?

Cheers,

take coils & plugs out, water in them. my 406 v6 did it, left them out overnight & all ok. unless you've done terminal ECU damage but doubtful

try wd40'ing the coilpack plugs themselves and get some compressed air on everything to blow drips out. one single blob of water on something is all it takes

Back to running on 3. Random with no explanation. Took all sensors, inlet, airbox, coilpack, plugs and just about everything else, tested all spark plugs, and each port of the coilpack. Despite electrocuting myself massively, nothing has helped. Been at this since 5 pm Sad

Furthermore, now every time I try and start it, its failing, and squirting fuel everywhere. Seems to be coming from under in inlet manifold, but can't confirm as I'm working alone and cannot see.

Please help Sad

Edit: can confirm its coming from below inlet, looks to be the fuel pressure regulator. metal pin clip isn't doing its job properly. Or I'm not fitting it correctly.

I've joined 106 owners, gonna see if they can help. Bloody pugs!

Fuel leak came after the electrocution LOL

The 3 cylinder issue was before this, each plug sparked, and each coil pack port was working. In neutral, the car is running on 3 up until around 4k when all 4 fire. In gear its present throughout the rev range seemingly.

I'll pass that on to the New owner Thumbs up

Hmm.. I'm without a car again.

I'm thinking 206 1.6 hdi or Clio 1.5 dci. Thoughts?

Cheers,

I had this on one of mine, turned out to be an issue with injector loom plugs.

Gonna save some moneys for the next year or so. Going from 25k a year to 15k with this new job has kind of messed me up a bit financially. Wink

I do a fair amount of mileage, I love driving. As long as i can take me and my daughter to the seaside in relative comfort with a fair amount of briskness in a £1000 car, while saving fuel ill be happy.

Both the 206 and the clio have around 100bhp I've driven both and I like them.

And Adam, I had a push bike once, I f**king hated it Thumbs down

Had a 306 hdi, didn't think much of it. Also it was noticeably noisier, slower and worse on fuel than both the aforementioned cars. Was a much better looker and handler though.
