Thanks Kirkynut.

Well it's turned out to be not good news :(

I caught up with an old RAF colleague of mine who was always a bit of an ace with electrics and he went over a whole load of tests.
His code reader found "random multiple misfire detected" and on further investigation found the front O2 sensor reading a high voltage indicating a rich mixture.
He routinely went through the plugs coil packs and HT leads and found them all acceptable, so went on with a compression test which gave the following results:

#1 Cyl 9.75 Bar (141.4118 psi)
#2 Cyl 8 Bar (116.03 psi)
#3 Cyl 9 Bar (130.534)
#4 Cyl 9.75 Bar (141.4118 psi)

So he thinks there is a good chance that there are burnt out exhaust valves on 2 & 3 :(

Oh no! Cylinder 2 certainly doesn't sound happy. Time for a 1.6?

Alas, it will be as much as I can afford to fix this, nevermind a 1.6 conversion
