that never crossed my mind. it's not on. Plugs and leads are new few weeks ago so unlikely it's them.

started the engine tonite when it was warm and was very spluttery and then died out. Could this be related to the misfiring?

telling you the above got me thinking that maybe I should change it. So I did. The EML is on all the time. The diagnostics will tell me now won't it?
