Just brought a 1.4 si, how hard is it for the local parts place to supply you with the right parts !!!

As its not all Zetec & its not all CVH .............

Been trying all day to get it started, but with no such luck...... - i have fuel, and a weak spark (i'd call it weak compared to my RS1800 fezzy). Could the coil pack's give out, as you can just crank it ,and crank it , with not even a spluter - doh

cheers
