i fink i no where they go as i had 2 change 1 that looks the same as the top 1 in the pic last night. it looks 2 me like the top 1 in the pic comes from the front of the block and goes in 2 a sqare thing (duno wot it is lol) just behind that black plastic tube that goes across the front of the block. and the other 1 goes 2 that plastic pipe. well thats wot they look like 2 me but not 100% on that.bad thing is i had 2 take the front end off 2 get 2 it!

stil no good changed plugs ,lead , coil pack injectors checked all pipes for splits or leaks but stil running like a tractor. does any think it could be head gasket ? or a valve sticking? if not goin to have to get it on a tester.

thanks for your help mate . last night i swapped the injecters with my old ones and it cured it so i took it for a drive and then went back to a bad misfire again. i didnt change the fuel rail tho so maybe some crap in the fuel rail and blocked an injector again maybe. il try changing the fuel rail and wil try vacume pipes like u said. once again thanks for ya help really appreciate it . stuart
