Woke up this morning, girlfriend went to work got into my car and it wouldnt start !!
Stuck miles from home in the rain with nothing !!
After a 30 min walk each way to halfords i bought a new distributor cap, valve, sensors, spark plugs, all cables, evian water to top water up and all tools (as i had nothing / nobody to help)
Anyway.....
Got back and changed it all over and the bugger wouldn't start 
I then noticed i hadn't changed 1 cable, although i didn't think it would make a difference as the spark plugs where sparking anyway i done that and then it started !!!! 
Sooooo £80 lighter its now ok 
Not good but atleast it runs better and smoother now !!
Sometimes modified cars are annoying aint they ?

i dont think halfords is any good, most of their stuff is over priced!!!
if i ever need anything i just goto an electricians shop for all the elecy crap, then if i need ICE i just by from online places and that is the same with bodywork stuff.
