My car is runy very badly at the moment, it sounds like it running very lumpy maybe on 3 cylinders? also backfires kind of when i accelerate. Also all plugs are fine but plug three is all black and looks like it hasnt been sparking or igniting.

Change plugs and leads etc not expensive. Get your timing checked, check the gapping on plug 3

PLugs were changed a couple weeks ago. leads have not been changed. Is there anywhere online i can order leads? Its a 1400 16v sport.

What gap should the plugs be at?
