Good luck Aaron, next meet we have I might want you to take a quick look at donnas 320i as it isn't runnuing right since I changed the rocker cover gasket. Seems it's only running on 5 cylinders, I did change all 6 coil packs with ones off my old 540, then changed spark plugs and found that the plug on cyl 1 is still spotlessly clean, so maybe time to get it read

As Aaron suggests above...also worth swapping the plug - and then if no success may be worth a compression test on all 6

It seems to be running better now, will bring it down to next meet just to get it checked over, will take the plug out to double check it's firing on it though
