Codes Again
My Bug has thrown a code now...
301. Misfire on Cylinder 1. I've got a set of NKG's coming, but I'm a bit confused. I've ordered 6's, but a quick search on here comes up with 7's. I've pulled one out, and its none of the above? BKR7EIX Then I made the mistake of googling the code! I understand it could be plug/coilpack, but a few answers come up with 1. Front 02 sensor 2. Neutral Position Switch Is it best just to work down the list swapping things out till its gone? |
Bug's throw this quite common, as it only allows 2 or 3 misfires to log it.
I would ignore it unless it happens all the time or you start to feel the miss-fire. Just reset the CEL. This CEL was deleted from later ECU's most likely due to random events. |
Should have added up the top, that's its also miss-firing, but not all the time.

Probably a coil pack then.

Thought I had it sorted!
New plugs, swapped the coil over on 1 to 3, to try and force a 303 if it was a faulty coil. Still got a 301. Run some injector cleaner through it, sorted. I thought. Did about 10 miles, run fine, boosted fine ( ish ) no codes. Parked it up, started to work on HHO's codes. Zig took it to the shops, again fine. Went out to pick her son up, and got a 301 again?? Dirty injector still?? |
Found the problem, injector was dying, and is now dead. Put a multimeter across the pins of the offending one and 0 Ohms, the others all showing about 15.5.
