Well My misfire is no more... thank god.. was like driving a tractor! sounded rough, had no go about it n was vibrating its tits off!! Had disco tom come and save the day (thankyou very much!)

I got the impression it was going to be a coil pack for some reason didnt really think about plugs! We took cylinder 1 coil off and i wasnt even gona take the plugs out but tom suggested that i take them out and have alook just in case.. right oh.. 1st plug to come out.. completely knackered!

Worrying photo given that the only direction the "missing bit" could go is down down down into your engine :(

I'd do a compression test to be sure. Gav had the same problem with a plug breaking up. The cylinder that had the problem dropped to 5bar of compression!
