my attempts at the old screw driver trick usually end up with me spiking myself in the head. I did give that a go initially but couldn't pick up on anything specific. I'm going to do the pull each coil off one at a time trick first to see if I can isolate the misfire, swap them round etc. While I've got the covers off I'll see if the injectors are ok at the same time.

I've been looking at some vids online and 2 missing cylinders on the straight 6 still doesn't produce that bad a vibration. my old v6 would feel like the car was shaking itself apart if even one coil had died. If I do find a dodgy coil I'll order a set of new plugs at the same time as I've no idea how old the current ones are.
