Hello everyone,

I have a missfire/hesitation! Only when I stay at a steady speed it dissapears when I accelerate or take my foot off the accelerater. I have changed the spark plugs and made sure they are all sparking. Is this a common fault? Someone told me it could be the air flow meter. Any info or ideas would be great thanks.

HT leads are the norm for missfires on the V8, run the engine with the bonnet up in the dark and you'll probably see sparks where the leads are arcing out on the rocker covers, you should be able to hear it too, makes a ticking sound when the spark jumps
